1  AN ACT concerning regulation.

2  Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,

3 represented in the General Assembly:

4  Section 5. The Illinois Insurance Code is amended by

5 changing Sections 143.16 and 143.17 and by adding Section

6 143.21e and Article XLVIII as follows:

7  (215 ILCS 5/143.16) (from Ch. 73, par. 755.16)

8  Sec. 143.16. Mailing of cancellation notice. All notices

9 of cancellation of insurance to which Section 143.11 applies,

10 except for those defined in subsections (a), (b) and (c) of

11 Section 143.13 must be mailed at least 30 days prior to the

12 effective date of cancellation during the first 60 days of

13 coverage. After the coverage has been effective for 61 days or

14 more, all notices must be mailed at least 60 days prior to the

15 effective date of cancellation. However, where cancellation is

16 for nonpayment of premium, the notice of cancellation must be

17 mailed at least 10 days before the effective date of the

18 cancellation. All such notices shall include a specific

19 explanation of the reason or reasons for cancellation and

20 shall be mailed to the named insured at the last mailing

21 address known to the company. For purposes of this Section,

22 the mortgagee or lien holder, if known, may opt to accept

23 notification electronically.

2   (215 ILCS 5/143.17) (from Ch. 73, par. 755.17)

3   Sec. 143.17. Notice of intention not to renew.

4   a. No company shall fail to renew any policy of insurance,

5 as defined in subsections (a), (b), (c), and (h) of Section

6 143.13, to which Section 143.11 applies, unless it shall send

7 by mail to the named insured at least 60 30 days advance notice

8 of its intention not to renew. The company shall maintain

9 proof of mailing of such notice on a recognized U.S. Post

10 Office form or a form acceptable to the U. S. Post Office or

11 other commercial mail delivery service. The nonrenewal shall

12 not become effective until at least 60 30 days from the proof

13 of mailing date of the notice to the name insured.

14 Notification shall also be sent to the insured's broker, if

15 known, or the agent of record, if known, and to the last known

16 mortgagee or lien holder. For purposes of this Section, the

17 mortgagee or lien holder, insured's broker, or the agent of

18 record may opt to accept notification electronically. However,

19 where cancellation is for nonpayment of premium, the notice of

20 cancellation must be mailed at least 10 days before the

21 effective date of the cancellation.

22  b. This Section does not apply if the company has

23 manifested its willingness to renew directly to the named

24 insured. Such written notice shall specify the premium amount

25 payable, including any premium payment plan available, and the
    SB4006 Enrolled         -3-  LRB104 19837 BAB 33287 b

1 name of any person or persons, if any, authorized to receive

2 payment on behalf of the company. If no person is so

3 authorized, the premium notice shall so state.

4   b-5. This Section does not apply if the company manifested

5 its willingness to renew directly to the named insured.

6 However, no company may impose changes in deductibles or

7 coverage for any policy forms applicable to an entire line of

8 business enumerated in subsections (a), (b), (c), and (h) of

9 Section 143.13 to which Section 143.11 applies unless the

10 company mails to the named insured written notice of the

11 change in deductible or coverage at least 60 days prior to the

12 renewal or anniversary date. Notice shall also be sent to the

13 insured's broker, if known, or the agent of record.

14  c. Should a company fail to comply with (a) or (b) of this

15 Section, the policy shall terminate only on the effective date

16 of any similar insurance procured by the insured with respect

17 to the same subject or location designated in both policies.

18  d. Renewal of a policy does not constitute a waiver or

19 estoppel with respect to grounds for cancellation which

20 existed before the effective date of such renewal.

21  e. In all notices of intention not to renew any policy of

22 insurance, as defined in Section 143.11 the company shall

23 provide the named insured a specific explanation of the

24 reasons for nonrenewal.

25  f. For purposes of this Section, the insured's broker, if

26 known, or the agent of record and the mortgagee or lien holder

4   Sec. 143.21e. Flood coverage; notice.

5   (a) Each insurer that delivers, issues for delivery, or

6 renews in this State a policy of fire and extended coverage

7 that does not provide coverage for loss caused by flood shall

8 provide to the insured a notice prescribed by the Director

9 that explains clearly, conspicuously, and in plain language:

10  (1) the policy does not provide coverage for loss

11  caused by flood;

12  (2) whether coverage for loss caused by flood is

13  available to the applicant through the company; and

14  (3) the availability of coverage for loss caused by

15  flood through the National Flood Insurance Program,

16  whether the company can write such coverage, and how to

17  obtain coverage through the National Flood Insurance

18  Program.

19  (b) At the time of policy issuance, the company must

20 obtain a written signature from the insured affirming the

21 flood coverage options were presented to the applicant in

22 plain language and that the applicant is declining coverage

23 for loss caused by flood, if available through the company.
