other matter
incorporated by reference or application blank | 25 | | has been filed electronically

policy subsequent to the | 7 | | date the policy is
issued must be filed with, reviewed, and | 8 | | formally approved by the
Director prior to the date it is | 9 | | attached to a policy issued or

withhold approval of any | 11 | | such policy, certificate, endorsement, rider,
bylaw or other | 12 | | matter incorporated by reference or application blank
filed | 13 | | with him if it contains provisions which encourage
| 14 | | misrepresentation or are unjust, unfair, inequitable, | 15 | | ambiguous,
misleading, inconsistent, deceptive, contrary to | 16 | | law or to the public
policy of this State, or contains | 17 | | exceptions and conditions that
unreasonably or deceptively | 18 | | affect the risk purported to be assumed in
the general coverage | 19 | | of the policy. In all cases the Director shall
approve or | 20 | | disapprove any such form within 60 days after submission
unless | 21 | | the Director extends by not more than an additional 30 days the
| 22 | | period within which he shall approve or disapprove any such | 23 | | form by
giving written notice to the insurer of such extension | 24 | | before expiration
of the initial 60 days period. The Director | 25 | | shall withdraw his approval
of a policy, certificate, evidence | 26 | | of coverage, endorsement, rider,
bylaw, or other matter |
| | | HB1129 Enrolled | - 10 - | LRB097 06759 RPM 46847 b |
|
| 1 | | incorporated
by reference or application blank if he | 2 | | subsequently determines that such
policy, certificate, | 3 | | evidence of coverage, endorsement, rider, bylaw,
other matter, | 4 | | or application
blank is misrepresentative, unjust, unfair, | 5 | | inequitable, ambiguous, misleading,
inconsistent, deceptive, | 6 | | contrary to law or public policy of this State,
or contains | 7 | | exceptions or conditions which unreasonably or deceptively | 8 | | affect
the risk purported to be assumed in the general coverage | 9 | | of the policy or
evidence of coverage.
| 10 | | If a previously approved policy, certificate, evidence of
| 11 | | coverage, endorsement, rider, bylaw
or other matter | 12 | | incorporated by reference or application blank is withdrawn
for | 13 | | use, the Director shall serve upon the company an order of | 14 | | withdrawal
of use, either personally or by mail, and if by | 15 | | mail, such service shall
be completed if such notice be | 16 | | deposited in the post office, postage prepaid,
addressed to the | 17 | | company's last known address specified in the records
of the | 18 | | Department of Insurance. The order of withdrawal of use shall | 19 | | take
effect 30 days from the date of mailing but shall be | 20 | | stayed if within the
30-day period a written request for | 21 | | hearing is filed with the Director.
Such hearing shall be held | 22 | | at such time and place as designated in the order
given by the | 23 | | Director. The hearing may be held either in the City of | 24 | | Springfield,
the City of Chicago or in the county where the | 25 | | principal business address
of the company is located.
The | 26 | | action of the Director in
disapproving or withdrawing such form |
| | | HB1129 Enrolled | - 11 - | LRB097 06759 RPM 46847 b |
|
| 1 | | shall be subject to judicial review under
the
Administrative | 2 | | Review Law.
| 3 | | This subsection shall not apply to riders or endorsements | 4 | | issued or
made at the request of the individual policyholder | 5 | | relating to the
manner of distribution of benefits or to the | 6 | | reservation of rights and
benefits under his life insurance | 7 | | policy.
| 8 | | (2) Casualty, fire, and marine. The Director shall require | 9 | | the
filing of all policy forms issued or delivered by any | 10 | | company transacting
the kind or
kinds of business enumerated in | 11 | | Classes 2 (except Class 2 (a)) and 3 of
Section 4 in an | 12 | | electronic format either through the System for Electronic Rate | 13 | | and Form Filing (SERFF) or as otherwise prescribed and approved | 14 | | by the Director . In addition, he may require the filing of any
| 15 | | generally used riders, endorsements, certificates, application | 16 | | blanks, and
other matter
incorporated by reference in any such | 17 | | policy or contract of insurance. The Department shall mail a | 18 | | quarterly invoice to the company for the appropriate filing | 19 | | fees required under Section 408.
Companies that are members of | 20 | | an organization, bureau, or association may
have the same filed | 21 | | for them by the organization, bureau, or association. If
the | 22 | | Director shall find from an examination of any such policy | 23 | | form,
rider, endorsement, certificate, application blank, or | 24 | | other matter
incorporated by
reference in any such policy so | 25 | | filed that it (i) violates any provision of
this Code, (ii) | 26 | | contains inconsistent, ambiguous, or misleading clauses, or
|
| | | HB1129 Enrolled | - 12 - | LRB097 06759 RPM 46847 b |
|
| 1 | | (iii) contains exceptions and conditions that will | 2 | | unreasonably or deceptively
affect the risks that are purported | 3 | | to be assumed by the policy, he
shall order the company or | 4 | | companies issuing these forms to discontinue
their use. Nothing | 5 | | in this subsection shall require a company
transacting the kind | 6 | | or kinds of business enumerated in Classes 2
(except Class 2 | 7 | | (a)) and 3 of Section 4 to obtain approval of these forms
| 8 | | before they are issued nor in any way affect the legality of | 9 | | any
policy that has been issued and found to be in conflict | 10 | | with this
subsection, but such policies shall be subject to the | 11 | | provisions of
Section 442.
| 12 | | (3) This Section shall not apply (i) to surety contracts or | 13 | | fidelity
bonds, (ii) to policies issued to an industrial | 14 | | insured as defined in Section
121-2.08 except for workers' | 15 | | compensation policies, nor (iii) to riders
