33-16-204. Review of rates on request by aggrieved person. (1) A person aggrieved by any rate charged, rating plan, rating system, or underwriting rule followed or adopted by an insurer or rating organization may request the insurer or rating organization to review the manner in which the rate, plan, system, or rule has been applied with respect to insurance afforded the person. The request may be made by the person's authorized representative and must be written.
(2) If the request is not granted within 30 days after it is made, the requester may treat it as rejected.
(3) Any person aggrieved by the action of an insurer or rating organization in refusing the review requested or in failing or refusing to grant all or part of the relief requested may file a written complaint and request for hearing with the commissioner, specifying the grounds relied upon. If the commissioner has information concerning a similar complaint, the commissioner may deny the hearing. If the commissioner believes that probable cause for the complaint does not exist or that the complaint is not made in good faith, the commissioner shall deny the hearing. Otherwise, and if the commissioner finds that the complaint charges a violation of this chapter and that the complainant would be aggrieved if the violation is proven, the commissioner shall proceed as provided in 33-16-205.
