This week, the Michigan Catastrophic Claims Association (MCCA) released the 2020-2021 per vehicle assessment. The current assessment of $220 will be lowered to $100 for the period beginning July 2, 2020 through June 30, 2021. That is a 55% reduction!
The $100 assessment will only be charged to those who choose to keep their unlimited lifetime personal injury protection benefits. Those who choose lower limits under the new no-fault law will not be charged the assessment as long as the MCCA is not in a deficit position.
In a press release, the MCCA states that, “the 55% reduction results directly from savings created by cost controls for medical treatment and other changes made to Michigan’s no-fault insurance law on June 11, 2019. These changes are estimated to erase the MCCA’s deficit of approximately $2.0 billion and reduce the annual MCCA assessment by approximately $1.0 billion.”
This is one of the first changes stemming out of recent No Fault Legislation that will go into effect in 2020.
