Online Edit Utility – All Lines Now Available

Since launching the NISS Online Edit Utility for all lines of business, we’ve continued to refine and enhance the tool based on internal improvements and early user feedback. Our goal is to make your reporting experience as seamless, accurate, and efficient as possible.

To better understand how the utility is working for our member companies, we’ve released a short Online Edit Customer Satisfaction Survey. If you haven’t already, we encourage you to take a few minutes to share your thoughts.

Your input plays a key role in helping us identify what’s working well and where enhancements are needed. If you have utilized the Online Edit Utility, we want to hear from you. Please click on the link below to take the survey:

NISS Customer Satisfaction Survey – Online Edit

Thank you for helping us continue to improve the Online Edit Utility. We appreciate your feedback as we work to provide useful resources to keep the reporting process simple.

Supplemental Auto Call – Membership Fee (MBR) Call

Each year on November 15th, NISS sends the Residual Market Participation Quota Determination to AIPSO on behalf of our member companies. Companies that write voluntary automobile policies are required to write a proportional number of residual market automobile policies, and AIPSO determines each company’s quota based on the data NISS sends.

To provide AIPSO with the correct premium amounts for each company, we may need to account for premiums listed as automobile on your annual statement but not included in your data submission to NISS. For this reason, the Membership Fee (MBR) Call is collected. The MBR Call includes membership or policy fee data with premiums separated between drivers under 25 years of age and senior citizen drivers. These fees can also be reported in the automobile data submission; however, if they are excluded, the fee amounts need to be reported with the MBR Call.

By either including the membership fees in the data submission or reporting the amounts on the MBR Call, we can ensure that we are sending AIPSO the correct premium amounts. This will also ensure that each company is receiving the proper credit for writing drivers under 25 years of age and senior citizen drivers, and that they receive the correct number of assignments from the quota determination.
