Storm Loss, Health Insurance
Claims Discussed at Hearing
Salem -HOT- The Columbus
Day storm and complaints
about health insurance were
cited Wednesday in support
of a proposed study of the in
surance industry in Oregon.
Reps. Shirley Field (R-Port-land)
and Morris Crothcrs H
Salem) were the two wit
nesses to testify before the
House Financial Affairs Com
mittee on a resolution to set
up an interim committee on
insurance. It would report
back in 1985.
Miss Field, a sponsor, said
more than $250 million in
premiums is paid for insur
ance in Oregon. She said since
the state reglatcs insurance,
the legislature should keep
abreast of the field. She said
the industry in Oregon has
not been examined recently.
Miss Field said claims aris
ing from the Oct. 12, 1962,
storm resulted in one insur
ance firm going broke be
cause of inadequate reserves
or reinsurance, causing sub
stantial losses to policy hold
ers. She also said title insurance,
company rates should be look
ed into. She said in recent
times they have simply been
filed after being settled by
private agreement.
Crothcrs, a doctor, said he
was particularly interested in
having an interim committee
look into health insurance
practices. He said the field has
grown rapidly in recent years
and there have been many
changes.
Crothcrs said more than
half the complaints coming to
the state insurance commis
sioner deal with health insur
ance. The doctor said there is a
need for ground rules to help
companies trying to do a good
job in the field in their effort
to compete with a few "shod
dy" companies.
He said some practices arc
"not socially desirable." He
cited waivers sometimes put
on a policy after a first claim.
He also cited the problem of
a group - insured individual
who then leaves the group,
losing coverage.
burn) said he had heard '.hat
men in the lower ranks of the
National Guard "were not
enthusiastic about the inspec
tor general idea. They fear it
won't do the job."
Austin said the department
staff concluded: "If we sup
port the bill is appears we
agree we need watching . . .
if we oppose the bill it would
