An example of unfair trade practice of discrimination by an insurer is refusing coverage based on age, as it involves unequal treatment without actuarial justification. Charging lower rates for non-smokers, using actuarial tables, or providing safe driving discounts are lawful as they're based on risk evaluation.
An act or practice is unfair when it (1) causes or is likely to cause substantial injury to consumers, (2) cannot be reasonably avoided by consumers, and (3) is not outweighed by countervailing benefits to consumers or to competition. Congress codified the three-part unfairness test in 1994.
The phrase unfair trade practices can be defined as any business practice or act that is deceptive, fraudulent, or causes injury to a consumer. These practices can include acts that are deemed unlawful, such as those that violate a consumer protection law.
(These practices are commonly called misleading or unfair business practices.) They include false advertising, misrepresentation, tied selling, and failing to comply with regulations. Under consumer protection laws, they are illegal and can lead to compensatory or punitive damages.
Dear INSURANCE COMMISSIONER NAME, I am writing to express our deep concern with a recent policy enacted by Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield (Anthem) in STATE. We believe the new policy will have a severe impact on STATE patients and their continuity of care, and we urge you to call on Anthem to retract their policy.
Integrity Maintain your reputation by being honest with clients. Keep your promises and when you're wrong about something, own up to it. Make sure everyone in the agency holds themselves in a professional manner. Passion If you are passionate about what you're doing, this will reflect positively in your work ethic.
Asking for recognition for someone else's job, calling in sick to go to the hill station, sabotaging someone else's work, and, in sales, falsifying the product or service to fulfill the target are all examples of unethical behavior in the workplace.
