(a) A person, including a member insurer, agent, or affiliate of a member insurer, may not make, publish, disseminate, circulate, or place before the public, or cause, directly or indirectly, to be made, published, disseminated, circulated, or placed before the public, in any newspaper, magazine, or other publication, or in the form of a notice, circular, pamphlet, letter, or poster, or over any radio station or television station, or in any other way, an advertisement, announcement, or statement, written or oral, that uses the existence of the association for the purpose of sales, solicitation, or inducement to purchase any form of insurance or other coverage covered by the association. However, this section does not apply to the association or any other entity that does not sell or solicit insurance, coverage by a hospital or medical service corporation, or coverage by a health maintenance organization.

(b) The association shall prepare a summary document describing the general purposes and current limitations of this chapter and complying with (c) of this section. This document shall be submitted to the director for approval. Beginning 60 days after the date on which the director approves the document, a member insurer may not deliver a policy or contract to a policy or contract owner, certificate holder, or enrollee unless the summary document is delivered to the policy or contract owner, certificate holder, or enrollee at the time of delivery of the policy or contract. The document shall also be available upon request by a policy or contract owner, certificate holder, or enrollee. The distribution, delivery, contents, or interpretation of this document does not guarantee that either the policy or the contract, or the policy or contract owner, certificate holder, or enrollee is covered in the event of the impairment or insolvency of a member insurer. The description document shall be revised by the association as amendments to this chapter may require. Failure to receive this document does not give the policy or contract owner, certificate holder, enrollee, or insured any greater rights than those stated in this chapter.

(c) The document prepared under (b) of this section must contain a clear and conspicuous disclaimer on its face. The director shall establish the form and content of the disclaimer. The disclaimer must

(1) state the name and address of the association and the division of insurance;

(2) prominently warn the policy or contract owner, certificate holder, or enrollee that the association may not cover the policy or, if coverage is available, that the policy will be subject to substantial limitations and exclusions and conditioned on continued residence in this state;

(3) state the types of policies or contracts for which guaranty funds will provide coverage;

(4) state that the member insurer and its agents are prohibited by law from using the existence of the association for the purpose of sales, solicitation, or inducement to purchase any form of insurance, hospital or medical service corporation coverage, or health maintenance organization coverage;

(5) state that the policy or contract owner, certificate holder, or enrollee should not rely on coverage under the association when selecting an insurer;

(6) explain rights available and procedures for filing a complaint to allege a violation of a provision of this chapter; and

(7) provide other information as required by the director, including sources for information about the financial condition of insurers if the information is not proprietary and is subject by law to disclosure.

(d) A member insurer shall retain evidence of compliance with (b) of this section for so long as the policy or contract for which the notice is given remains in effect.
