AI Summary
This bill allows insurance companies to send insurance policies electronically to policyholders or other designated recipients, in addition to mailing or delivering them physically. This electronic transmission will be considered valid delivery for most types of insurance, including commercial risks like workers' compensation and property insurance, unless the recipient specifically requests a paper copy or communicates in writing or electronically that they do not agree to electronic delivery. The bill also mandates that policyholders be informed of their right to receive a paper copy instead of an electronic one, and that a paper copy will be provided upon request.
