26.1-36-19. Age limit in accident and health policy

26.1-36-19. Age limit in accident and health policy If an accident and health insurance policy contains a provision establishing, as an age limit or otherwise, a date after which the coverage provided by the policy will not be effective, and if the date falls within a period for which premium is accepted by the insurer or if the insurer accepts a premium after that date, the coverage provided by the policy continues in force subject to any right of cancellation until the end of the period for which premium has been accepted. In the event the age of the insured has been misstated and if, according to the correct age of the insured, the coverage provided by the policy would not have become effective, or would have ceased prior to the acceptance of the premium or premiums, then the liability of the insurer is limited to the refund, upon request, of all premiums paid for the period not covered by the policy.
