B. If a person is aggrieved by the application of a rating system, the person may send a written request to the workers' compensation appeals board established by section 20-367 to review the manner in which the rating system has been applied to the insurance afforded the aggrieved person. The aggrieved person or that person's representative may present the grievance before the board. A representative of the rating organization whose rating system is the subject of the appeal shall attend any hearing before the board pursuant to this section to explain that application of the rating system to the aggrieved person.
