Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why A is correct
Under the Florida Insurance Code, form filings are treated broadly: riders, endorsements, and applications attached to or used with a policy are forms that must be filed with and approved by the Office of Insurance Regulation before use, so that all contract language reaching Florida consumers has prior approval.
Why the other options are wrong
- B) Form approval is not limited to the policy jacket; riders and endorsements modify coverage and require the same review.
- C) Foreign and domestic insurers alike must file their forms; domicile does not create an exemption.
- D) Internal claims manuals and underwriting guidelines are addressed through examination rather than the form filing process.
Memory hook
If it changes or creates coverage, it is a form: file it.
