Which is NOT a requirement under the Fair Credit Reporting Act for insurers?

In the context of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), insurers are subject to various requirements aimed at protecting consumers' privacy and ensuring that credit information is used responsibly. Among these requirements, there are specific obligations related to transparency and consumer rights.

One of the key provisions of the FCRA is that when an insurer denies an application or takes an adverse action based on a consumer's credit report, the insurer is required to notify the applicant of this fact (this aligns with the second option). Additionally, if any adverse action is based on information from a credit reporting agency, the insurer must inform the applicant of their rights under the FCRA, including the right to obtain a copy of their report and dispute any inaccuracies.

While it is important for insurers to discuss inaccuracies and provide a channel for consumers to address errors, the FCRA itself does not explicitly mandate a discussion to occur with applicants about inaccuracies at the time of application or when a decision is made.
