Kansas Statutes Chapter 40. Insurance § 40-2228e. Same; reinstatement, conditions

Long-term care insurance policies or certificates shall include a provision which provides for reinstatement of coverage, in the event of lapse if the insurer is provided proof of cognitive impairment or the loss of functional capacity. This option shall be available to the insured if requested within five months after termination and shall allow for the collection of past due premium, where appropriate. The standard of proof of cognitive impairment or loss of functional capacity shall not be more stringent than the benefit eligibility criteria for cognitive impairment or the loss of functional capacity contained in the policy or certificate.
