BILL NUMBER:S4689 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the insurance law, in relation to requiring insurers of property to eliminate from the claims record of an insured, any claim of loss made and paid in good faith, which is discovered to be false and the proceeds of such claim are repaid to the insurer PURPOSE: To require the removal from an insurer's record of claims any claim paid for lost property which was subsequently found to be not lost and the insured reimbursed the insurer for the claim. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: This bill amends insurance law by adding a new section 3407-b. JUSTIFICATION: There is no requirement in law that a claim be removed from an insured's record of claims should lost property be found and said claim be reimbursed by insured. Additionally, there have been instances in which an insured's reimbursement of a claim is missing from the record of claims. This creates an incomplete picture of an insured's claim history and disadvantages future ability to get insurance and/or distorts an insured's risk profile.
