ODI Issues Bulletin regarding Loss of Personal Information

Over the past several months OAHU has worked with other stakeholders and the Ohio Department of Insurance (ODI) concerning the situations in which insurers and agents should be required to notify ODI when a loss of personal information occurs. As a result of these discussions, ODI has issued a Bulletin that requires both insurers and agents to report the loss of a policyholder’s personal information to ODI when the loss involves more than 250 residents of Ohio. Below is the Bulletin which becomes effective on November 2, 2009.
