What is typically the objective of a hearing requested under the insurance code?

The primary objective of a hearing requested under the insurance code is to assess the validity of a violation. These hearings serve as a formal process where evidence and arguments are presented regarding alleged infractions of insurance regulations. The outcome of such hearings helps determine whether a violation has occurred based on the facts and applicable law.

This process is essential for ensuring accountability within the insurance industry, allowing regulatory bodies to uphold the law and protect consumers. By examining the specifics of each case during a hearing, the appropriate actions can be taken, which may include imposing sanctions or allowing corrective measures to be implemented rather than simply punishing the insurer. The focus is on establishing whether a violation took place and what implications it has, rather than preemptively dismissing or punishing without a thorough investigation.
