Common use of CONVERSION CLAUSE Clause in Contracts

CONVERSION CLAUSE. 1. If during the term of this contract, the insurance coverage for a beneficiary terminates because the beneficiary ceases to be eligible and is disenrolled, such person has the right to receive a direct payment policy from INSURER without submitting evidence of eligibility. The direct payment policy will be issued by the INSURER without taking into consideration pre-existing conditions or waiting periods. The written request for a direct payment policy must be made, and the first premium submitted to INSURER on or before thirty-one (31) days after the date of disenrollment, bearing in mind that: a) The direct payment policy should be an option of such person, through any of the means which at that date INSURER has currently made available according to the age and benefits requested. It will be subject to the terms and conditions of the direct payment policy. b) The premium for the direct payment policy will be in accordance with the rate then in effect at INSURER, applicable to the form and benefits of the direct payment policy, in accordance with the risk category the person falls in at the moment, and the age reached on the effective date of the direct payment policy. The health condition at the moment of conversion will have no bearing in the eligibility nor will it be an acceptable base for the risk classification. c) The direct payment policy should also provide for coverage to any other individual, if these were considered eligible beneficiaries at the termination date of the health insurance under this contract. Under option by INSURER, a separate direct payment policy may be issued to cover the other individuals who formerly were eligible beneficiaries. d) The direct payment policy will be effective upon termination of coverage under the health insurance contracted. e) INSURER will not be obligated to issue a direct payment policy covering a person who has the right to receive similar services provided by any insurance coverage or under the Medicare Program of the Federal Social Security legislation, as subsequently amended, if such benefits, jointly provided under the direct payment policy, result in an excess of coverage (over insurance), according to the standards of the INSURER. 2. When coverage under this contract terminates due to the expiration of its term, all persons formerly considered eligible beneficiaries, who have been insured for a period of three (3) years prior to the termination date, will be eligible for a INSURER direct payment policy, subject to the conditions and limitations stipulated in clause 1 of this section. 3. Subject to the conditions and limitations stipulated in clause 1 of this section, the conversion privilege will be granted: a) to all eligible beneficiaries whose coverage under the health insurance contracted is terminated because they cease to be eligible beneficiaries and are disenrolled. b) to any eligible beneficiary whose coverage under the health insurance contracted ceases because he no longer qualifies as an eligible beneficiary, regardless of the fact that the principal subscriber and/or any other eligible beneficiary continues covered by said health insurance coverage under this contract. 4. In case an eligible beneficiary under this contract suffers a loss covered by the direct payment policy, described in clause 1 of this section, during the period he/she would have qualified for a direct payment policy and before the said direct payment policy is in effect, the benefits which he/she would have a right to collect under such direct payment policy will be paid as a claim under the direct payment policy, subject to having requested the direct payment policy and the payment of the first premium. 5. If any eligible beneficiary under this contract subsequently acquires the right to obtain a direct payment policy, under the terms and conditions of the INSURER's policies without providing evidence of qualifications for such insurance, subject to the request and payment of the first premium during the period specified in the policy; and if this person is not notified of the existence of this right, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the expiration of such period, such person will be granted an additional period during which time he/she can claim his/her right, none of the above implying the continuation of a policy for a period longer than stipulated in said policy. The additional period will expire fifteen (15) days after the person is notified, but in no case will it be extended beyond sixty (60) days after the expiration date of the policy. Written notification handed to the person or mailed to the last known address of the person, as acknowledged by the policy holder, will be considered as notification, for the purposes of this paragraph. If an additional period is granted for the right of conversion as hereby provided, and if the written application for direct payment, enclosed with the first premium payment, is made during the additional period, the effective date of the direct payment policy will be the termination of the health insurance coverage under this contract. 6. Subject to the other conditions expressed before, the eligible beneficiaries will have the right to conversion, up to one of the following dates: a) date of termination of his/her eligibility under this contract; or b) termination date of this contract; or c) date of amendment of this contract, if said amendment in any way eliminates the beneficiaries' eligibility.
