Sec. 38a-676a. Review of professional liability rates for physicians and surgeons, hospitals, advanced practice registered nurses and physician assistants. Working group. Recommendations. (a) Not earlier than October 1, 2008, the Insurance Commissioner shall review professional liability insurance rates in this state for physicians and surgeons, hospitals, advanced practice registered nurses and physician assistants to determine whether (1) the amount or frequency of insured awards and settlements against physicians and surgeons, hospitals, advanced practice registered nurses and physician assistants have decreased since October 1, 2005, (2) such rates reflect any such decrease, and (3) such rates bear a reasonable relationship to the costs of writing such insurance in this state. In conducting the review, the commissioner shall examine the rates for such insurance under policies issued by (A) captive insurers and risk retention groups, to the extent such information is available to the commissioner, and (B) insurers licensed in this state.
(b) If after such review the commissioner determines that such insurance rates have not decreased, and such insurance rates are not reasonably related to the costs of writing such insurance in this state, the commissioner shall convene a working group in accordance with subsection (c) of this section. The working group shall consider, among other things, the amounts of awards and settlements during the prior ten years and shall recommend appropriate revisions, if any, to the general statutes in order to decrease rates or establish reasonable rates. Such revisions may include, but need not be limited to, reasonable limitations on noneconomic damages awards, revisions to procedures used by insurers to establish rates, and regulation of reimbursement rates paid by health insurers and health care centers to health care providers in this state. The working group shall submit its recommendations to the General Assembly and the Governor in accordance with section 11-4a.
(c) Any working group convened pursuant to subsection (b) of this section shall consist of:
(1) The chairpersons and ranking members, or their designees, of the joint standing committees of the General Assembly having cognizance of matters relating to the judiciary, public health and insurance;
(2) One member appointed by the Connecticut Medical Society;
(3) One member appointed by the Connecticut Hospital Association;
(4) One member appointed by the Connecticut Trial Lawyers Association;
(5) One representative of a patient advocacy group appointed by the speaker of the House of Representatives;
