Every individual or family accident and health or hospitalization policy, certificate, contract, or plan, except trip or travel ticket policies, issued for delivery in this State shall have printed thereon or attached thereto a notice to the insured that ten days are allowed, from the date of the receipt of the policy to examine its provisions and that the insured may for any reason surrender the policy to the insurer. In addition, if the policy was solicited by a direct response insurer, rather than through a licensed insurance agent, the policy, certificate, contract, or plan shall have printed thereon or attached thereto a notice to the insured that thirty days are allowed from the date of the receipt of the policy to examine its provisions and that the insured may for any reason surrender the policy to the insurer. Any premium advanced by the insured, upon appropriate surrender as provided herein, must be immediately returned in full by the insurer to the insured.
