2005 Minnesota Statutes - 65B.10 — Eligibility.

     65B.10 Eligibility. 


    Subdivision 1.    Eligibility for coverage.  To be 
 eligible for coverage through the facility an otherwise 
 qualified applicant must have been rejected, canceled or refused 
 renewal with respect to automobile insurance by a member.  


    Subd. 2.    Termination of eligibility.  Eligibility for 
 placement through the facility will terminate if an insured is 
 offered equivalent coverage in the voluntary market at a rate 
 lower than the facility rate.  If the member that is required to 
 provide coverage by the facility makes such an offer after 
 giving 30 days' advance written notice to the agent of record 
 before making the offer, the member shall have no further 
 obligation to the agent of record.  


    Subd. 3.    Review of insureds.  At least annually, 
 every member shall review every private passenger nonfleet 
 applicant which it insures through the facility and determine 
 whether or not such applicant is acceptable for voluntary 
 insurance at a rate lower than the facility rate.  If such 
 applicant is acceptable, the member shall make an offer to 
 insure the applicant under voluntary coverage at such lower rate.
