PDFWAC 284-24A-033

How will an insurer or a group of affiliated insurers know its eligibility rules or guidelines will be withheld from public inspection?

Eligibility guidelines will be kept as confidential records if they:
(1) Conform to the definition in WAC 284-24A-032; and
(2) Are clearly identified.
To ensure confidentiality, insurers should submit eligibility guidelines in a separate and distinct part of the related rate filing so they may be separated from other documents in the filing that are public records under RCW 48.19.040(5).
