(1) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (2), an applicant for long-term care insurance shall have the right to return the policy within 30 days after its delivery and to have the entire premium refunded if, after examination of the policy, the applicant is not satisfied for any reason and benefits have not been incurred under the policy. Long-term care insurance policies shall have a notice prominently printed on the first page of the policy and the summary of coverage stating in substance that the applicant has the right to return the policy within 30 days after its delivery and to have the entire premium refunded if, after examination of the policy, the applicant is not satisfied for any reason.
(2) A person insured under a long-term care insurance policy issued pursuant to a direct response solicitation shall have the right to return the policy within 30 days after its delivery and to have the entire premium refunded if, after examination, the insured person is not satisfied for any reason. Long-term care insurance policies issued pursuant to a direct response solicitation shall have a notice prominently printed on the first page of the policy and the summary of coverage stating in substance that the insured person shall have the right to return the policy within 30 days after its delivery and to have the entire premium refunded if, after examination, the insured person is not satisfied for any reason. As used in this section, “direct response solicitation” means solicitation in which a representative of the insurer does not contact the applicant in person and explain the coverage available, such as, but not limited to, solicitation through direct mail or through advertisements in periodicals and other media.
