Bulletin 31
EXTENSION OF ACCIDENT AND SICKNESS INSURANCE TO NEWBORNS
October 22, 1975
The last session of the General Assembly enacted I.C. 27- 8- 5.6-2 providing extension of family
coverage on accident and sickness insurance to newborns. This act applies to all accident and sickness
insurance policies delivered or issued for delivery after October 1, 1975.
Compliance with this act on individual policies should not present any problems. However, all
insurers writing group policies affected by this act should immediately make appropriate changes in the
master policy in order to comply with this act for any group members enrolled after October 1, 1975.
