ARM 6.6.2401. PURPOSE

(1) The purpose of these rules is to: (a) adopt the Coordination of Benefits Model Regulation, as promulgated by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC); (b) establish a uniform order of benefit determination under which plans pay claims; (c) establish uniformity in the permissive use of overinsurance provisions and to avoid claim delays and misunderstandings that could otherwise result from the use of inconsistent or incompatible provisions among plans; (d) reduce duplication of benefits by permitting a reduction of the benefits to be paid by plans that, pursuant to rules established by this subchapter, do not have to pay their benefits first; and (e) provide greater efficiency in the processing of claims when a person is covered under more than one plan.
