When an insurer terminates the appointment, employment, or other relationship of a producer, it must notify the Nevada Insurance Commissioner. The notice must be made in the form prescribed by the Commissioner within 30 days after the effective date of termination.
An appointment is the insurer's authorization for a licensed producer to act as its agent. Ending an appointment does not automatically cancel the producer's underlying license. A producer may remain properly licensed and may be appointed by another insurer or operate as a broker when permitted by law.
Therefore, option B is incorrect.
The insurer must provide the required notice to the Commissioner; it is not required to obtain a hearing before ending the appointment. The producer is sent a copy of the insurer's notification after the Commissioner is notified, but the statute does not require the insurer to provide 30 days' advance notice to the producer. The producer has an opportunity to file written comments concerning the report with the Commissioner.
The reporting rule supports regulatory oversight and helps the Division identify whether a termination involved conduct that may warrant disciplinary action.

Long-term care insurance is intended to provide benefits for qualified services needed because of chronic illness, cognitive impairment, or inability to perform activities of daily living. Typical covered settings and services include skilled nursing facilities, home health care, and hospice care, subject to the policy's benefit triggers, elimination period, daily or monthly limits, and plan of care requirements. Therefore, choice D is correct. Treatment or rehabilitation for addictive behavior is commonly excluded or restricted because it is not ordinarily a qualifying l ong-term care service under the policy's chronic-care purpose. Long-term care insurance is not the same as comprehensive medical insurance, disability income insurance, or substance-use treatment coverage. Before benefits become payable, the insured usually must be certified as chronically ill, often based on inability to perform at least two activities of daily living or severe cognitive impairment.
Policies may cover institutional care, assisted living, adult day care, respite care, and home-based services, but each benefit is subject to contractual definitions and limits.

The application is generally part of the entire contract only when a copy is attached to or endorsed on the policy. The entire-contract provision identifies the documents that form the binding agreement between the insurer and the insured. In an individual health policy, the policy itself and the attached application are the principal contract documents. Material statements made in the application are treated according to the policy and governing law, but outside papers, advertisements, and verbal discussions ordinarily do not become policy terms merely because they were used in the sales process.
This rule protects both parties. The insured can review the documents that govern coverage, while the insurer can rely on the written application it used for underwriting. A producer's notes, informal assurances, or advertising language cannot expand benefits, remove exclusions, or alter policy conditions unless formally incorporated into the contract. Producers must avoid statements that conflict with the issued policy and should deliver the policy promptly so the applicant can examine it during any applicable free-look period.
Nevada's individual health-insurance law requires specified policy provisions and permits approved substitutions only when they are not less favorable to the insured or beneficiary. The exact wording and placement of the application therefore matter.

Coordination of Benefits, commonly called COB, applies when an insured is covered by more than one health plan. It establishes the order in which plans pay and limits the combined payment so the insured does not receive more than the amount of the covered expense. Choice B is correct because COB prevents a profit from duplicate health coverage while still allowing the insured to receive the benefits to which the insured is entitled. One plan is identified as primary and pays first under its policy terms. The secondary plan then considers the unpaid covered balance, subject to its own coordination provisions and limits. COB does not prohibit a person from owning more than one health policy, does not guarantee uninterrupted benefits when changing insurers, and does not authorize a general delay of a workers' compensation claim until benefits expire. Workers' compensation coordination depends on the applicable policy and governing law. On the examination, distinguish COB from nonduplication of benefits and from other insurance clauses; COB specifically allocates payment responsibility among multiple health plans.

An HMO is a managed-care arrangement that commonly delivers and finances health-care services through a defined network of providers. Covered persons typically select or are assigned a primary care provider who coordinates routine care and, depending on the plan design, provides referrals for specialist services. Services received outside the network may be limited or not covered except for emergencies or specifically authorized care.
Traditional indemnity insurance operates differently. It generally reimburses covered medical expenses subject to policy limits, deductibles, coinsurance, and usual-and-customary or other payment standards. The insured may have broader provider choice, but that flexibility is often paired with less managed coordination and potentially greater out-of-pocket exposure. A preferred provider organization, or PPO, also uses a network but typically allows nonnetwork care at reduced benefit levels rather than requiring the same referral structure associated with many HMOs.
The exam distinction is based on delivery of care and network control, not merely on whether a policy has a deductible. Managed-care plans seek to control cost and improve coordination by negotiating with providers and establishing coverage procedures. Nevada recognizes network plans as policies in which financing and delivery of medical care are provided, at least in part, through defined providers under contract with the insurer.
