As Washington state's insurance regulator, a large part of what we do is try to resolve consumer complaints against insurers: delayed or denied claims, wrongful cancellation of policies, etc.
To speed up the process, we have developed a new online "Complaint Response System," or CRS. This allows us to contact insurers over the internet while still protecting people's private information.
Here's the key part for insurers to know: On June 28, 2013, companies with an active Washington license will be automatically registered for the new system. Any consumer complaints received by our office regarding those companies will be uploaded to the CRS beginning July 1, 2013. After this date, we will no longer be sending complaints to you via US Mail. The CRS will be the only avenue used to forward complaints to you and receive your responses.
We would like to invite those companes to participate in our CRS training. It will only take a couple hours of your time and will assist you in navigating the new system.
We strongly encourage any of your staff who responds to Washington consumer complaints to attend one of the below trainings.
There are two training times available:
• Tuesday, June 18: 9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. (PST)
• Monday, June 24: 1:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. (PST)
We will email the WebEx invitations on June 10th to your company's complaint contact.
