Why C is correct
Under A.R.S. 20-286 and Arizona's line-of-authority framework, each line must be separately qualified for and granted. A producer holding only the life line must obtain the accident and health line of authority from the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions before selling health products; the lines are distinct and nothing converts or bundles them automatically.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) Wrong because the life line does not include accident and health authority; each line is granted separately under Arizona licensing law.
- B) Wrong because insurer permission cannot add a line of authority; qualification and issuance run through the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions.
- D) Wrong because there is no retroactive conversion of one line into another; the producer must qualify for the accident and health line.
Memory hook
New products, new line — qualify for the A&H authority.
