    ​Pennsylvania Private Passenger Automobile Data Call

    The Pennsylvania Insurance Department conducts an annual Private Passenger Automobile Data Call (previously referred to as the “Act 6 Data Call"). The purpose of this data call is to monitor the private passenger automobile insurance marketplace in Pennsylvania.

    Data Call Details

    This data call has four parts. Additional details are included for each individual part, including which companies must complete them. All submissions must follow the naming convention provided. As with past data calls, all submitted data will be considered proprietary and handled accordingly.

    All four parts must be submitted no later than October 15, 2025.

    • Part 1 - Companies with Pennsylvania private passenger automobile direct written premium in 2024 are required to complete Parts 1 and 2. Data for more than one insurance company may not be combined into a single submission.
    • Part 2 - Insurance Companies with no Pennsylvania private passenger automobile direct written premium in 2024 are required to submit only Part 2.
    • Parts 3 and 4 - The 20 largest insurance companies in terms of Pennsylvania private passenger automobile direct written premium in 2024 are also required to complete Parts 3 and 4. These companies are identified in the Instructions for Parts 3 and 4.
