(1) Every insurer or rate service organization shall furnish to any insured affected by a rate published by it all pertinent information as to such rate within a reasonable time after receipt of a written request and upon payment of a reasonable charge.
(2) Every insurer and rate service organization shall provide reasonable means whereby any person aggrieved by the application of its rating system may be heard within this state on written request to review the manner in which such rating system is applied in relation to the insurance afforded. If the insurer fails to grant or reject such request within thirty (30) days, the applicant may proceed in the same manner as if the application has been rejected. A party affected by the action of an insurer with respect to a request under this subsection may appeal to the commissioner within thirty (30) days after receipt of notice of such action. The commissioner, after a hearing held upon not less than ten (10) days written notice to the appellant and insurer, may affirm, modify or reverse such action.
