If an insurer uses a schedule rating plan, the insurer
- (1) must uniformly apply the plan to all eligible insureds or applicants;
- (2) must apply the plan at each policy renewal;
- (3) must assign credits or debits only for risk characteristics described in the plan; however, for each insured or applicant, the insurer may use underwriting judgment to determine an appropriate amount of any credit or debit within the filed range; and
(4) may not apply the plan in such a way as to duplicate other rating or rate development factors, including those in
- (A) a manual rate;
- (B) the classification of insureds within a rating system; or
- (C) an experience rating plan.
