Senate Bill No. 241, introduced by Senator Hodges, mandates that insurance adjusters, public adjusters, insurance appraisers, and contractors include their Louisiana license numbers in all written communications, including electronic messages, related to their business or employment. This requirement is intended to enhance transparency and accountability within the insurance industry. The bill enacts new provisions in the Louisiana Revised Statutes, specifically R.S. 22:1674.1(A)(22), 1706(H)(12), and 1807.16(D)(5), as well as R.S. 37:2156.1(K).

The effective date for this legislation is set for August 1, 2026. By ensuring that professionals in these fields provide their license numbers in communications, the bill aims to improve consumer protection and facilitate easier verification of credentials.
