SF 52 Wyoming House · 2025 Regular Session

Insurance amendments.

SF 52 amends Wyoming's insurance code to update requirements for insurers operating in the state. It expands the definition of "insurance transaction," requires insurers to update contact information with the insurance commissioner within 30 days of any change, and clarifies rules for reporting administrative actions. The bill repeals outdated requirements, including the need to deliver certificates of authority to the commissioner upon expiration and specific disclosure rules about disability insurance coverage of wellness benefits. These changes apply directly to all insurers holding licenses in Wyoming. The bill is currently in committee with a recommendation to pass.
