Any insurer may revise its schedules of premium rates from time to time, and shall
file such revised schedules with the commissioner. No insurer shall issue any credit
life insurance or credit health insurance policy for which the premium rate exceeds
that determined by the schedules of such insurer as then on file with the
commissioner.
Each individual policy or group certificate shall provide that in the event of
termination of the insurance prior to the scheduled maturity date of the
indebtedness, any refund of an amount paid by the debtor for insurance shall be paid
or credited promptly to the person entitled thereto. The commissioner shall
prescribe a minimum refund and no refund which would be less than such minimum
need be made. The formula to be used in computing such refund shall be filed with
and approved by the commissioner. Nothing contained in this section shall require
the debtor to surrender any policy or group certificate for cancellation or
termination solely because the indebtedness has been paid in full prior to the
scheduled maturity date nor require the insurer to return any premiums.
When a debtor purchases credit life insurance or credit health insurance and an
individual policy or group certificate of insurance is not issued, the creditor shall
immediately give written notice to such debtor and shall promptly make an
appropriate credit to the account.
The amount charged to a debtor for any credit life insurance or credit health
insurance shall not exceed the premiums charged by the insurer, as computed at the
time the charge to the debtor is determined.
Nothing in this subtitle shall be construed to authorize any payments for insurance
now prohibited under any statute, or rule thereunder, governing credit transactions.
