Any such insured aggrieved by the failure or refusal of an insurer or rating organization to make such review and to grant appropriate relief within thirty (30) days after such request is received may file a written complaint and request for a hearing with the commissioner, specifying the grounds relied upon.

If after such hearing he finds the complaint justified, he shall order the matter complained of to be corrected within a reasonable time, but not less than twenty (20) days after a copy of his written order has been mailed to or served upon the insurer complained against.
