Chapter 737 - Rates and Rating Organizations
Section 737.360 - Rating organization to accept insurers as subscribers; rules of organization to be reasonable; review of applications for subscribership and of reasonableness of rules.

(2) Each rating organization shall furnish its rating services without discrimination to its members and subscribers. Any rating organization may subscribe to or purchase actuarial, technical or other services, and such services shall be available to all members and subscribers without discrimination.
(3) The reasonableness of any rule or regulation in its application to subscribers, or the refusal of any rating organization to admit an insurer as a subscriber, at the request of any subscriber or any such insurer, shall be reviewed by the director at a hearing held at a place designated by the director and upon at least 10 days’ written notice to such rating organization and to such subscriber or insurer. If the director finds that such rule or regulation is unreasonable in its application to subscribers, the director shall order that such rule or regulation shall not be applicable to subscribers. If the rating organization fails to grant or reject an insurer’s application for subscribership within 30 days after it was made, the insurer may request a review by the director as if the application had been rejected. If the director finds that the insurer has been refused admittance to the rating organization as a subscriber without justification, the director shall order the rating organization to admit the insurer as a subscriber. If the director finds that the action of the rating organization was justified, the director shall make an order affirming its action.
(4) No rating organization shall adopt any rule, the effect of which would be to prohibit or regulate the payment of dividends, savings or unabsorbed premium deposits allowed or returned by insurers to their policyholders, members or subscribers. [Amended by 1967 c.359 §320]
