We protect consumers through regulation, education, and advocacy. If you are looking for more information about the Maryland Insurance Administration, please visit www.insurance.maryland.gov. The MIA's goal is to provide efficient, effective service to both the consumers of insurance products and the insurance industry. The MIA best serves its core constituents by assuring fair treatment of consum
ers. Consumers are protected when insurance coverage is available at fair prices and when companies are solvent and utilize fair sales, claims and settlement practices. The agency strives to increase public understanding of the vital role insurance plays in the daily lives of Maryland citizens and businesses. Insurance is the principal means of managing risks. While it is not possible to eliminate risks arising from poor health, auto accidents, home damage and other unexpected occurrences, you may minimize its impact by purchasing appropriate insurance coverage. Though the MIA cannot recommend a particular policy or insurance company, we can help you learn what types of coverage are available, at what cost, and assist you if you have a complaint about how your insurance company responds when you file a claim.
