Another anon here: I agree, there's not enough to go on there - this could be in reference to a state requirement (Florida) or Fannie Mae or who knows what all.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
If I fail to make any monthly mortgage payment as agreed, I understand
that the servicer of my mortgage loan may refer me to a third-party

mortgage insurer to make a recommendation about appropriate action to
take with regard to my mortgage loan, which may assist the servicer in
determining whether to restructure my mortgage loan or to offer other
extraordinary services that could preserve my long-term homeownership.
