Sec. 3843.
(1) A policy or certificate of health insurance issued for delivery in this state to persons eligible for Medicare by reason of age must notify insureds under the policy or certificate that the policy is not a Medicare supplement policy. The notice must either be printed or attached to the first page of the coverage outline delivered to insureds under the policy or certificate or, if a coverage outline is not delivered, to the first page of the policy or certificate delivered to insureds.

"This (policy or certificate) is not a Medicare supplement (policy or certificate). It is not designed to fit with Medicare. It may not fit all of the gaps in Medicare and it may duplicate some Medicare benefits. If you are eligible for Medicare, review the Medicare supplement buyer's guide available from the company. If you decide to consider buying this policy or certificate, be sure you understand what it covers, what it does not cover, and whether it duplicates coverage you already have."
