Prevents insurers from raising premiums for insureds who claim uninsured motorist coverage if they were not at fault.

The bill amends the South Carolina Code to prohibit insurers from increasing an insured's premium solely because they made a claim under their uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage, provided the insured was not at fault in the accident. This change aims to protect policyholders from unfair premium hikes following a valid claim. The amendment takes effect upon approval by the Governor.
