The Florida insurance commissioner has ordered 12 entities to stop selling unauthorized health insurance policies in the state. According to published reports, the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation began investigating the insurance companies in question after it received complaints that they were sending out fax blasts advertising cheap coverage.
About the Complaints
Individuals who complained about the companies said that the fax blasts regarding the health insurance said they’d signed up for policies that were not associated with major medical insurance as had been advertised. Instead, the policies were associated with unauthorized limited-benefit plans.
As many as 2,500 customers have purchased the insurance prior to the complaints.
