MD Insurance Bulletin 16-30
New Reporting Instructions and Forms for cases under §27-1001 of the Insurance Article and § 3-1701 of the Courts and Judical Proceedings Article
civil action proceeds through each level of adjudication and as each adjudicatory body
issues a disposition.
The amended Reporting Forms are designed to simplify the reporting process and
are located on the Administration’s website (insurance.maryland.gov) at the following
hyperlink: Insurer Good Faith Requirements . Please note, once you open the Excel
spread sheet, you must save the form to your computer in Excel and then complete
the form with the required information. The shaded areas (light blue in color)
contained on the Excel spread sheet are areas which provide a drop down menu.
Please choose the correct information from the drop down menu and that
information will automatically transfer onto the Excel spread sheet. Once the
Excel spread sheet is complete, please save it with the case name or case
number and then submit the completed form to the Administration by attaching it to
an email to Pamela Hirsch at pam.hirsch@maryland.gov.
If you have questions regarding the process for submitting the §27-1001 Notice
of Disposition or the §3-1701 Notice of Pending Complaint, please contact Pamela
Hirsch, Maryland Insurance Administration, Phone: (410) 468-2346, Email:
