Review of advisory organization actions.

Oklahoma Statutes - Title 36. Insurance

A. Every advisory organization which makes its own rates shall

provide within this state reasonable means whereby any insured

aggrieved by the application of its rating system may, upon that

insured's written request, be heard in person or by the insured's

authorized representative to review the manner in which such rating

system has been applied in connection with the insurance afforded

the aggrieved insurer.

B. An insurer or any party affected by the action of an

advisory organization may, within thirty (30) days after written

notice of that action, make application, in writing, for an appeal

to the Insurance Commissioner, setting forth the basis for the

appeal and the grounds to be relied upon by the applicant.

C. Within thirty (30) days, the Commissioner shall review the

application and, if the Commissioner finds that the application is

made in good faith and that it sets forth on its face grounds which

reasonably justify holding a hearing, the Commissioner shall conduct

a hearing held not less than ten (10) days after written notice to

the applicant and to the advisory organization. The Commissioner,

after a hearing, shall affirm or reverse the action of the advisory
