Gov. Pat Quinn has appointed a new acting director of the Illinois Department of Insurance.
Robert Wagner has been with the department 11 years and is its general counsel.
He is the department’s third acting director since June, when the previous director, Michael McRaith, left to take a post in President Barack Obama’s administration.
Quinn first gave the acting director post to insurance department chief deputy director, Jack Messmore, who later retired. Quinn then appointed Andrew Stolfi, whose term as acting director ended Dec. 23.
The insurance department regulates insurance companies, HMOs and brokers selling insurance in Illinois. It provides consumer information and investigates complaints about companies and brokers.
