No-Fault auto insurance reform deal announced by Gov. Whitmer
Gov. Whitmer has announced that a deal has been reached on Michigan No-Fault auto insurance reform.
Here is what Gov. Whitmer said about reforming Michigan’s No-Fault auto insurance system in her statement that was released this morning at 8:00 a.m.:
“After constructive conversations over the past week, I am pleased to announce that we have reached an agreement in concept on bipartisan auto no-fault reform legislation that will lower costs and protect coverage for Michigan drivers. The deal: guarantees rate relief for every Michigan driver; provides a choice in coverage levels; establishes more uniform and structured compensation levels for medical providers; and removes the ability of insurance companies to discriminate based on non-driving factors. I look forward to working with the legislature to pass and sign this important legislation into law.”
The specific details have not yet been released. As soon as they are, we will let you know how No-Fault has been changed and what it means for you.
