58-18A-57. Plan defined--Types of coverage considered in coordination of benefits to be stated. For the purposes of this chapter, the term, plan, means a form of coverage with which coordination is allowed. Separate parts of a plan for members of a group that are provided through alternative contracts that are intended to be part of a coordinated package of benefits are considered one plan and there is no COB among the separate parts of the plan.
If a plan coordinates benefits, its contract shall state the types of coverage that will be considered in applying the COB provision of that contract. Whether the contract uses the term, plan, or some other term such as program, the contractual definition may be no broader than the definition of plan in this section.
