Research on Chapter 702 indicates that this article was the first insurance fraud statute enacted and it was not amended or repealed when Article 1.10D (the predecessor to Chapter 701 of the Insurance Code) was enacted in 1991. Chapter 701 creates the Insurance Fraud Unit in the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) and provides for the comprehensive investigation and reporting of insurance fraud. There are some provisions in Chapter 702 that are in conflict with Chapter 701, and differing definitions of the same terms exist within the two statutes. TDI is concerned that these differences could create problems with enforcement and could create a defense challenge to its authority to discipline or prosecute persons committing insurance fraud. This bill repeals Chapter 702 of the Insurance Code to remove conflicting provisions in the code regarding the investigation and reporting of insurance fraud. RULEMAKING AUTHORITY It is the committee's opinion that this bill does not expressly grant any additional rulemaking authority to a state officer, department, agency, or institution.
