Florida's chief financial officer announced that the task force examining the claims handling of the state's insurer of last resort will meet Monday.
The second session of the Task Force on Citizens Property Insurance Claims Handling and Resolution, in Tallahassee, is part of the ongoing effort to resolve old claims and reform the Citizen claims handling process, said CFO Adelaide “Alex” Sink.
The task force was established by legislation passed during a special session of the state legislature earlier this year. It consists of representatives from the legislative and executive branch and Citizens.
Under the legislation the task force has two mandates. Initially, it is directed to make recommendations for Citizens to help resolve claims remaining from the 2004 and 2005 hurricane seasons. The committee is charged with writing a report listing those recommendations and presenting it to state officials by July1.
The task force's second charge is to evaluate the procedures used by Citizens for claims handling, resolution and customer service, presenting a final report on those issue by July 1, 2008.
