Notes of Decisions

Deemed Approval

A Department letter in which it is stated that the Department has questions, comments, or requests which must be addressed in order to continue its review cannot be considered a request for additional information so as to trigger a deemed withdrawal. The Department’s subsequent failure to timely disapprove a rate filing resulted in its deemed approval. Nationwide Mutual Insurance Co. v. Insurance Department, 583 A.2d 507 (Pa. Cmwlth. 1990).
