(2) The policy is specifically designed, advertised, represented, and sold as a supplement to other basic sickness and accident insurance coverage.
(3) The entire premium for the policy is paid by the insured, the insured's family, or the insured's guardian.
(B) This section applies to supplemental sickness and accident policies irrespective of the mode or channel of premium payment to the insurer or of any reduction in the premium by virtue of the insured's membership in any organization or the insured's status as an employee.
