     A bill to amend 1956 PA 218, entitled

(MCL 500.100 to 500.8302) by adding sections 3109b and 3117.

 

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN ENACT:

 

     Sec. 3109b. (1) The director shall promulgate rules under the

 

administrative procedures act of 1969, 1969 PA 306, MCL 24.201 to

 

24.328, to establish standards to apply to determine whether rates

 

filed by an insurer reflect reasonably reduced premium rates for

 

policies that coordinate benefits under section 3109a.

 

     (2) The director shall apply the standards of the rules

 

promulgated under this section to all rates filed for automobile

 

insurance under chapter 21 to determine whether the rates comply

 

with the standards. If the director determines that an insurer's

 

rates do not comply with the standards, the director shall, on the

 

director's own motion as provided in section 2114(2), commence a

 

contested case under the administrative procedures act of 1969,

 

1969 PA 306, MCL 24.201 to 24.328, to determine whether to order

 

that the filing that contains the rates is ineffective.

 

     Sec. 3117. If a person suffers bodily injury that entitles the

 

person to recover personal protection insurance benefits under this

 

chapter, any subrogation, reimbursement, or lien rights that may

 

exist under a health insurance policy, a health care benefits plan,

 

or other health and accident coverage that is applicable to the

 

injury must not be greater than the subrogation, reimbursement, or

 

lien rights of an insurer under section 3116.
