Proposed Legislation Targets Assignment Of Benefits In Auto Insurance

 Tuesday, January 31, 2023

 Palm Coast Observer

A Florida House Republican on Friday filed a proposal that would prevent motorists from assigning auto-insurance benefits to repair shops that can then pursue payments from insurers.

The proposal (HB 541), filed by Rep. Griff Griffitts, R-Panama City Beach, came after lawmakers last month barred assignment of benefits in the property-insurance industry.

Insurers have long argued that the practice known as AOB increases litigation and drives up costs.

Griffitts’ bill, filed for the legislative session that will start March 7, would prohibit assignments for auto insurance starting July 1.
