Extends authorization for certain exemptions from filing requirements
This bill extends an existing exemption for certain large insurance companies from needing prior state approval for rates and policy forms. It applies specifically to domestic property/casualty insurers with high policyholder surplus or licensed reciprocal insurers meeting strict criteria: at least 90% of their premiums must be medical malpractice insurance, less than 5% of premiums can be reinsurance, and they must write 90% of business in-state. The exemption period is extended until June 30, 2027. This change directly affects qualifying insurers operating in New York, reducing their regulatory burden for rate and form approvals.
