California Code, Insurance Code - INS § 10235.14

(a) Individual long-term care insurance policies shall contain a renewability provision. This provision shall be appropriately captioned, shall appear on the first page of the policy, and shall clearly disclose the term of coverage for which the policy is initially issued, the terms and conditions under which the policy may be renewed, and whether or not the issuer has the right to change the premium. If this right exists, the policy provisions shall clearly and concisely describe each circumstance under which the premium may change.

(b) Except for riders or endorsements by which the insurer effectuates a request made in writing by the insured under an individual long-term care insurance policy, all riders or endorsements added to an individual long-term care insurance policy after date of issue or at reinstatement or renewal which reduce or eliminate benefits or coverage in the policy shall require signed acceptance by the individual insured. After the date of policy issue, any rider or endorsement which increases benefits or coverage with a concomitant increase in premium during the policy term shall be agreed to in writing signed by the insured, unless the increased benefits or coverage are required by law. If a separate additional premium is charged for benefits provided in connection with riders or endorsements, that premium charge shall be set forth in the policy, rider, or endorsement.

(c) If a long-term care insurance policy or certificate contains any limitations with respect to preexisting conditions, those limitations shall appear as a separate paragraph of the policy or certificate and shall be labeled as “preexisting condition limitations.”

(d) A long-term care insurance policy or certificate containing any limitations or conditions for eligibility shall set forth in a separate paragraph of the policy or certificate a description of those limitations or conditions, including any required number of days of confinement, and shall label that paragraph “Limitations or Conditions on Eligibility for Benefits.”
