every individual health insurance policy shall contain a provision therein or in a separate rider attached
thereto when delivered, stating in substance that the person to whom the policy is issued shall be
permitted to return the policy within 10 days of its delivery to such person and to have a refund of the
premium paid if after examination of the policy the purchaser is not satisfied with it for any reason. The
provision shall be set forth in the policy under an appropriate caption, and if not so printed on the face
page of the policy adequate notice of the provision shall be printed or stamped conspicuously on the
face page.
[PL 1969, c. 132, §1 (NEW).]
2. The policy may be so returned to the insurer at its home or branch office to the agent through
whom it was applied for, and thereupon shall be void as from the beginning and as if the policy had not
been issued.
