Insurers send small unpaid balances to collections without prior billing notice
Customers who switch insurance providers mid-term receive no bill for remaining balances, only a collections notice, damaging their credit for small amounts.

The lack of a standard billing step before collections creates disproportionate financial and credit harm.
