Section 20:06:13:35 - Notice of replacement

Upon determining that a sale will involve replacement of Medicare supplement coverage, any issuer, other than a direct response issuer, or its agent, shall furnish the applicant, prior to issuance or delivery of the Medicare supplement policy or certificate, a notice regarding replacement of Medicare supplement coverage. One copy of the notice signed by the applicant and the agent, unless the coverage is sold without an agent, must be provided to the applicant and an additional signed copy must be retained by the issuer. A direct response issuer shall deliver to the applicant at the time of the issuance of the policy the notice regarding replacement of Medicare supplement coverage.

The notice required by this section is in Appendix C at the end of this chapter. Notice used by an issuer must be in substantially the same form and in no less than twelve-point type. For purposes of this section, "form" means the language, format, type size, type proportional spacing, bold character, and line spacing.

Unless the coverage is direct marketed, the agent must ask and record the answers to all questions on the forms.
