Connecticut issues underinsured motorist conversion coverage guidance

Connecticut advises that Public Act 09-72 requires an automobile insurer issuing a new automobile liability insurance policy to disclose to an insured at the time of sale or issuance the availability of, premium cost for, and description of underinsured motorist conversion coverage.  Forms are provided that can be used to comply with this requirement.  If insurers develop their own forms, the forms must receive the Department's prior approval for use of alternative language.  Contact John Palmer for assistance in making filings.
