group coverage or by health programs sponsored by any government
or by the group policyholder. The premium for the converted
policy shall be determined in accordance with the insurer's table
of premium rates applicable to the age and class of risk of each
person to be covered under that policy and to the type and amount
of insurance provided.

requirements for the insurer to the person whose coverage is

regarding the timely election of the conversion privilege. The
requirements for notification shall include, but need not be
limited to, a provision in any certificates furnished persons
covered under group and blanket health insurance policies setting
forth the conditions applicable to election of the conversion
privilege. Continuation of group coverage at the expense of the
insured person may be required for a period not to exceed 6
months.
[(d)] (E) The provisions of this section shall apply to all
group policies delivered or renewed in the State, upon the
