reason that the insured has previously obtained other insurance from the same insurer;
(2)
a provision giving the insurer the right to declare the policy void because
the insured has had any disease or ailment, whether specified or not, or because the
insured has received institutional, hospital, medical or surgical treatment or attention,
except a provision which gives the insurer the right to declare the policy void if the
insured has, within two (2) years prior to the issuance of the policy, received
institutional, hospital, medical or surgical treatment or attention and if the insured or
claimant under the policy fails to show that the condition occasioning such treatment or
attention as revealed in the application was not of a serious nature or was not material
to the risk; or
(3)
a provision giving the insurer the right to declare the policy void because
the insured has been rejected for insurance, unless such right be conditioned upon a
showing by the insurer that knowledge of such rejection would have led to a refusal by
the insurer to make such contract.
