Chapter 375 Provisions Applicable to All Insurance Companies
Section 375.920. Policy form approval, disapproval--procedure.

375.920. No insurer shall deliver any policy of private passenger automobile insurance, homeowner's insurance, dwelling-owner's insurance, residential fire insurance, or tenant's or renter's insurance written upon property within this state until such policy form shall have been approved as provided for in sections 375.920 to 375.923. Upon submission of any form to the director of the department of insurance, financial institutions and professional registration, such form shall be deemed approved. The director of the department of insurance, financial institutions and professional registration shall review such form within sixty days, and may have a hearing during that time. If within that time he determines the policy form is not in compliance with the insurance laws of this state and does not contain such words, phraseology, conditions and provisions which are specific, certain and unambiguous and reasonably adequate to meet the needed requirements of those insured under such policies, he may file a petition with the administrative hearing commission asking that the policy be disapproved, stating specifically the reasons why such policy form shall be disapproved.
