CCH INSURANCE SERVICES Announces the Release of AuthenticWeb™ Matrix Covering UM/UIM PIP Coverage Offerings

New Matrix Provides Easy-To-Use Reference Tool to Determine Required UM/UIM PIP Coverage Offerings

(RIVERWOODS, ILL., November 19, 2003) – CCH INSURANCE SERVICES, the nation’s leading provider of information solutions for insurance compliance professionals and a division of CCH INCORPORATED (CCH), announced today that it has released a new AuthenticWeb Matrix covering UM/UIM PIP Coverage Offerings requirements.

CCH INSURANCE SERVICES is the industry’s leading source of auto policy forms in preprinted and electronic formats. The AuthenticWeb Matrix for UM/UIM PIP Coverage Offerings summarizes, by state and by commercial or personal lines, the mandatory automobile coverages that must be offered to insureds, with specific focus in the areas of UM/UIM/PIP coverages.

The chart details, by column headings, the coverage(s) that must be offered, the mandatory offerings (minimum limits), whether the coverage(s) can be rejected by the insured, how often it must be administered, whether the form needs to be filed and the applicable CCH Insurance Services form to be used.

Additionally, the Matrix provides a quick, easy-to-use, web-based table of requirements in each state for each listed form, making it easier to maintain compliance and avoid errors.

The AuthenticWeb Matrix for UM/UIM PIP Coverage Offerings is a logical complement to the existing AuthenticWeb UM/UIM Coverage Rejection service. The two services can be purchased separately or as a package. AuthenticWeb Matrices, which are offered over the Internet, are updated monthly to ensure current regulatory information.
