Illinois: MedPro Makes Payment Accommodations

November 27, 2013 - in response to the hardships caused by recent severe storms and tornadoes, and in accordance with Bulletin 2013-18 issued by the Illinois Department of Insurance, Medical Protective will provide a sixty-day interest-free moratorium of cancellations or non-renewals of insurance policies in effect for policyholders affected by the aforementioned storms and tornadoes. Specifically, the moratorium applies to affected policyholders who reside in or own any property located in or around the affected counties, including (as of 11/27/2013): Champaign, Douglas, Fayette, Grundy, Jasper, LaSalle, Massac, Pope, Tazewell, Vermilion, Wabash, Washington, Wayne, Will, or Woodford.

This moratorium is not a waiver; it is only an extension of the grace period in which to pay premium. Furthermore, please note that this applies only to non-renewals and cancellations attributed to a failure to pay premiums as a result of the aforementioned storms and tornadoes.
