## Bill overview: provisions PRIA read

- Electronic messages for car insurance claims: benefit, low. Motor vehicle insurers must accept electronic messages and documents about claims through a method they choose. They must confirm receipt within 10 business days. Insurers can accept fax only if they also offer another electronic method. The rule covers claimants, including third-party claimants, a…
