Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the insurance law, in relation to prohibiting the imposition of different rates for premiums for the provision of disability insurance
AI Summary
This bill amends the New York insurance law to prohibit insurers from charging different disability insurance premium rates based on an individual's gender. Specifically, the legislation applies to individual, group, and blanket disability insurance policies in New York State, making it illegal for insurance companies to set varying premium prices for men and women. The bill will take effect on January 1st of the year following its passage and will apply to all disability insurance policies that are issued, renewed, modified, altered, or amended on or after that date. This change aims to eliminate gender-based pricing discrimination in disability insurance, ensuring that individuals are not charged different rates solely because of their gender, which could potentially help promote more equitable insurance pricing.
