State to Curb Delinquency in Insurance Premiums
The Montana Industrial Accident Commission will tighten rules for state insurance plan firms. Under new measures deposits cover three months estimates, bills switch to bi monthly, payrolls due by the 10th, premiums due within 15 days, and if payrolls fail the company is billed by average of two prior months. Delinquent licenses may be canceled and deposits applied to owed sums. Chairman Jerome G Locke notes wildcatters’ losses justify the system.
