List of Approved Peer Review Organizations; Notice No. 1996-16

[26 Pa.B. 4376]

   On February 7, 1990, Pennsylvania's auto reform law (Act 6) was signed into law. This law was designed to reduce the cost of providing private passenger automobile insurance in Pennsylvania, and provides mechanisms to pass the costs savings from insurance companies to insurance consumers.

   75 Pa.C.S. § 1797(b) (relating to customary charges for treatment) provides for the utilization of Peer Review Organizations (PRO) by property and casualty insurers for the purpose of evaluating the quality and medical necessity of health care treatment and services for victims of motor vehicle accidents.

   Act 6 requires that insurers contract only with PROs that have been approved by the Insurance Commissioner.

   The Insurance Department hereby lists, in Annex A, those PROs which were approved as of August 15, 1996. Hereafter, a listing of approved PROs will be published by the Insurance Department in the Pennsylvania Bulletin on or about April 1 of each year.

   Questions regarding this notice or PROs generally may be directed to Carolyn Montgomery, Director, Bureau of Consumer Services, Insurance Department, 1321 Strawberry Square, Harrisburg, PA 17120; telephone [phone]; fax [phone].

LINDA S. KAISER,   
Insurance Commissioner
