psychologists, or an optometrist or optometrists, to
persons who become subscribers to such plan under
contracts which entitle each subscriber to certain
hospital, medical, chiropodial, chiropractic,
pharmaceutical, dental, PSYCHOLOGICAL, or optometric care
or any of them, shall be governed and regulated by the

There may be a provision as follows:

"Illegal occupation: The [insured] INSURER shall
not be liable for any loss to which a contributing cause
was the insured's commission of or attempt to commit a
felony or to which a contributing cause was the insured's
being engaged in an illegal occupation."

540.

The benefits required, under § 539 of this article
shall be payable without regard to the fault or nonfault
of the named insured or the recipient in causing or
contributing to the accident, and without regard to any
collateral source of medical, hospital, or wage
continuation benefits. Where the insured has coverage
for both the benefits required under § 539 and the
collateral benefits, the insurer or insurers may
coordinate the policies to provide for nonduplication of
such benefits; subject, however, to appropriate
reductions in premiums for one or both of said coverages
approved by the Insurance Commissioner, and the named
insured shall have the right to elect or reject the
coordination of policies and nonduplication of
benefits[,]. If the insured elects to coordinate, he
shall indicate in writing which policy is to become
primary. An insurer paying benefits pursuant to § 539 of
this article shall have no right of subrogation and no
claim against any other person or insurer to recover any
such benefits by reason of the alleged fault of such
other person in causing or contributing to the accident.

shall take effect July 1,
