assigned risk plan

Type of auto insurance plan that gives the ability to obtain insurance from a pool of insurers to individuals that have previously been denied insurance coverage based on risk factors. All licensed insurers must participate in this type of plan and are allowed to determine their own rates. Individuals cannot be denied for this type of plan and the fees are usually much higher than regular auto insurance plans.
