OLYMPIA, Wash. — A bill prohibiting post-loss assignment of benefits agreements passed the Washington state Senate on Thursday, Feb. 5, by a unanimous vote (48-0-0-1).
Senate Bill 6178, requested by Washington state Insurance Commissioner Patty Kuderer, increases protections for insurance consumers. A post-loss assignment of benefits (AOB) is an agreement that allows a third party, like a contractor, to receive insurance payments directly from the consumer’s insurance company.
