Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why C is correct
ORC 1751.31 is the solicitation documents statute for health insuring corporations, so the written materials used to market membership fall under it. The surrounding chapter assigns neighboring duties elsewhere: advertising is governed by ORC 1751.20, member rights and renewal by ORC 1751.18, and confidentiality of medical and health information by ORC 1751.52.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) Wrong: ORC 1751.52 addresses confidentiality of medical and health information, not solicitation documents.
- B) Wrong: ORC 1751.18 governs member rights and renewal; it does not regulate solicitation documents.
- D) Wrong: ORC 1751.20 governs HIC advertising; solicitation documents are governed by ORC 1751.31.
