20-1344. Policy provisions required; omissions; substitutions

A. Except as provided in subsection B of this section, each such policy delivered or issued for delivery to any person in this state shall contain the provisions specified in sections 20-1345 to 20-1356, inclusive, in the words in which such provisions appear, except that the insurer may, at its option, substitute for one or more of such provisions corresponding provisions of different wording approved by the director which are in each instance not less favorable in any respect to the insured or the beneficiary. Each such provision shall be preceded individually by the applicable caption shown, or, at the option of the insurer, by such appropriate individual or group captions or subcaptions as the director approves.

B. If any such provision is in whole or in part inapplicable to or inconsistent with the coverage provided by a particular form of policy, the insurer, with the approval of the director, shall omit from the policy any inapplicable provision or part of a provision, and shall modify any inconsistent provision or part of a provision in such manner as to make the provision as contained in the policy consistent with the coverage provided by the policy.
