Forthright is always interested in what the PIP community thinks of the NJ No-Fault PIP Arbitration program. Accordingly, Forthright is introducing a new method for parties to provide feedback on DRP hearings and awards, effectively bifurcating the process. Beginning August 31, 2023, parties will be provided with two opportunities to give feedback. First, parties will be able to evaluate the hearing process immediately after the hearing is closed through the time the award is processed. And again, for a period of 30 days after the award is processed, parties will be able to evaluate the award. (Parties will remain able to submit evaluations under the prior method for a period of 30 days for Awards rendered prior to August 31.) Forthright encourages party engagement with the new evaluation process so we can continue to provide the high quality arbitration program the New Jersey PIP community has come to expect.
