Article 23A - Long-Term Care Insurance
Section 59A-23A-3 - Scope.
The provisions of the Long-Term Care Insurance Law shall apply to policies, certificates or riders delivered or issued for delivery in this state on or after July 1, 1989. The Long-Term Care Insurance Law is not intended to supersede any obligations of any entity to comply with the substance of any other provision of law, except that laws and regulations designed and intended to apply to medicare supplement insurance policies shall not be applied to long-term care insurance.
History: Laws 1989, ch. 136, § 3; 1993, ch. 126, § 8.
The 1993 amendment, effective June 18, 1993, in the first sentence, substituted "Law" for "Act", substituted "in this state" for "renewed or continued", and substituted "July 1, 1989" for "the effective date of that act"; substituted "Law" for "Act" in the second sentence; and deleted the former last sentence, which read: "A policy which is not marketed or offered as long term care insurance or nursing home insurance is not subject to the provisions of the Long-Term Care Insurance Act."
