For legislation relative to the effect of comprehensive insurance claims. Financial Services.

AI Summary

This bill amends Section 113B of Chapter 175 of the General Laws in Massachusetts. It removes provisions that allowed insurers to consider a policyholder's history of 4 or more comprehensive insurance claims totaling $2,000 or more when determining their rates, unless the policyholder did not purchase fire, theft, comprehensive, and collision coverages. The bill eliminates these limitations on insurers' ability to consider a policyholder's comprehensive insurance claim history when setting rates.
