Complaint indexes and policy counts for insurance companies

data.texas.gov | Last Updated 4 Oct 2021

The Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) regulates the state’s insurance industry and oversees the administration of the Texas workers’ compensation system. This data set includes counts for confirmed complaints and policies in force by company name and line of coverage. The complaint index is calculated by dividing the company's percentage of complaints for a specific line of insurance by the company's percentage of policies in force for the same line of insurance. The average index is 1.00. A number less than 1 indicates fewer complaints than average. A number greater than 1 indicates more complaints than average.
