Rhode Island H7512 amends definitions in state law to provide clarity on who must be licensed as contractors, home inspectors, and claim adjusters. The bill specifies that anyone performing inspections or evaluations for insurance claims must be licensed as a home inspector unless exempt. It also clarifies that unlicensed individuals performing certain activities for insurers are considered claim adjusters and must be licensed. The changes aim to ensure that only properly licensed professionals engage in these activities.
