The National Council of Insurance Legislators (NCOIL) concluded its 2024 Spring National Meeting (Meeting) from April 11th – 14th in Nashville, breaking all previous attendance records for a Spring Meeting. In what was the first of the organization’s three National Meetings in 2024, there were 367 participants consisting of 73 legislators from 31 states, 17 first-time legislators, 8 Insurance Commissioners, and 16 total insurance departments represented.
The packed agenda featured topics such as: affordability and availability problems in the auto and homeowners’ insurance marketplace; efforts to achieve mental and behavioral health parity, and the countervailing costs; insurance issues related to catalytic converter theft; liability related issues within the sharing economy; third party litigation financing; the continued development of treatment and coverage for obesity; and more.
“During our first Meeting of 2024, I could not be more pleased with the attendance and the substantive advances we made on a wide range of important policy priorities. From the Model Laws we introduced and continued development on, to the discussion items that generated healthy debate, the Spring Meeting has certainly set NCOIL up for a productive 2024,” said Rep. Tom Oliverson, M.D. (TX), NCOIL President. “The organization is at its strongest when there is robust participation from legislators all across the country participating in our discussions and that was certainly clear in Nashville.”
