Cite as N.D. Admin. Code ยง 45-04-01.1-03
1.
Each insurer marketing policies to which this chapter is applicable shall notify the
commissioner whether a policy form is to be marketed with or without an illustration. For all
policy forms being actively marketed on January 1, 1997, the insurer shall identify in writing
those forms and whether or not an illustration will be used with them. For policy forms filed
after January 1, 1997, the identification shall be made at the time of filing. Any previous
identification may be changed by notice to the commissioner.
2.
If the insurer identifies a policy form as one to be marketed without an illustration, any use of
an illustration for any policy using that form prior to the first policy anniversary is prohibited.
3.
If a policy form is identified by the insurer as one to be marketed with an illustration, a basic
illustration prepared and delivered in accordance with this chapter is required, except that a
basic illustration need not be provided to individual members of a group or to individuals
insured under multiple lives coverage issued to a single applicant unless the coverage is
marketed to these individuals. The illustration furnished an applicant for a group life insurance
policy or policies issued to a single applicant on multiple lives may be either an individual or
composite illustration representative of the coverage on the lives of members of the group or
the multiple lives covered.
4.
Potential enrollees of nonterm group life subject to this chapter must be furnished a quotation
with the enrollment materials. The quotation must show potential policy values for sample
ages and policy years on a guaranteed and nonguaranteed basis appropriate to the group and
the coverage. This quotation may not be considered an illustration for purposes of this
chapter, but all information provided must be consistent with the illustrated scale. A basic
illustration must be provided at delivery of the certificate to enrollees for nonterm group life
who enroll for more than the minimum premium necessary to provide pure death benefit
protection. In addition, the insurer shall make a basic illustration available to any nonterm
group life enrollee who requests it.
