Commissioner’s Bulletin # B-0048-04

November 10, 2004


To:   All Insurers of Private Passenger Automobile in Texas

Re:   Adoption of Proposed Amendments to the Texas Private Passenger Automobile Statistical Plan


Commissioner's Order No. 04-1075 issued on November 8, 2004, adopted amendments to the Texas Private Passenger Automobile Statistical Plan (Stat Plan) as proposed by the staff of the Texas Department of Insurance. The amendments make the following changes to the Stat Plan:

Quarterly Market Report:

  • amend and add codes under Section 4 - Experience To Be Reported to include Group 2 vehicles.
  • amend and add codes under Section 7 - Policy and Membership Fees to include Group 2 vehicles.
  • amend Section 13 - Summary Reporting by Driver Class to not be limited to Group 1 vehicles.
  • amend and add codes under Numeric Field 15 of the Record Layout and Field Definitions to include Group 2 vehicles.
  • amend and add codes under Numeric Field 40-48 of the Record Layout and Field Definitions to include Group 2 vehicles.

The adopted amendments are necessary in order to implement reporting of Group 2 vehicle experience in order for TAIPA to have more complete and accurate information for assignment quota and assessment purposes. Group 2 "other private passenger automobile business" vehicles are subject to assignment through the Texas Automobile Insurance Plan Association (TAIPA) in the same fashion as Group 1 "regular private passenger automobiles." However, no complete data on the numbers of Group 2 vehicles insured are collected by the QMR or by any other report required by the Stat Plan.

All amendments and associated changes to the Stat Plan reporting requirements are effective for 1st quarter 2005 experience reporting. Please replace the current same-numbered pages with the attached revised pages in the Stat Plan. Changes are noted with strike-through or underline marks as applicable. A complete copy of the Stat Plan can be downloaded at www.tdi.state.tx.us.

Questions relating to this bulletin should be directed to the undersigned at 512-475-3026.

Sincerely,

Gary Gola
Special Projects Director
Property & Casualty (MC 105-5S)
