, Q1. Under Utah's replacement regulations, which action by a producer constitutes a
violation when replacing an existing life insurance policy?
A. Providing the applicant with a signed replacement notice at the time of delivery of
the new policy.
B. Submitting the replacement notice to the replacing insurer within five working days
of taking the application.
C. Leaving a copy of the replacement notice with the applicant and retaining a copy for
the producer's records.
D. Using a comparison form that only shows the new policy's benefits and excludes the
existing policy's cash value.
Correct Answer: D. Using a comparison form that only shows the new policy's
benefits and excludes the existing policy's cash value.
Rationale: Utah requires a complete comparison of benefits and costs between existing
and proposed coverage; omitting the existing policy's cash value misrepresents the
replacement. Options A, B, and C reflect compliant timing and documentation procedures
under Utah Insurance Code R590-132.
Why Wrong:
A - Delivery of a signed replacement notice at policy delivery is permitted if the
notice was provided earlier, but this alone is not the violation.
B - Five working days is within the required timeframe for notifying the replacing
insurer.
C - Retaining and leaving copies of the replacement notice is a required, compliant
practice.
Reference: Utah Insurance Department Rule R590-132-5; NAIC Life Insurance
Replacement Model Regulation.
Q2. A producer in Utah sells a health insurance policy that includes a pre-existing
condition exclusion. Which federal law most directly limits the duration of that
exclusion for a group health plan?
A. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996.
B. Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) of 2010.
C. Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) of 1974.
D. Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (COBRA) of 1985.
Correct Answer: B. Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) of 2010.
Rationale: The ACA prohibits pre-existing condition exclusions for all non-grandfathered
health plans, effectively eliminating the exclusion rather than merely limiting its duration.
HIPAA previously allowed exclusions up to 12 months, but the ACA superseded that for
most plans. ERISA governs plan administration, and COBRA addresses continuation
coverage, not exclusion duration.
