The commissioner shall disapprove a viatical settlement contract form or disclosure statement form if, in the commissioner's opinion, the contract or provisions contained therein fail to meet the requirements of sections 508E.8, 508E.10, 508E.14, and 508E.15, subsection 2, or are unreasonable, contrary to the interests of the public, or otherwise misleading or unfair to the viator.
