1. (1) When long term care benefits are provided through early payment of a portion of a life insurance policy death benefit, the insurer may make no more than a pro rata reduction in the life insurance policy cash value, based on the percentage of death benefits advanced. When the cash value is reduced in this manner, the insurer may apply no more of the payment to the reduction of any outstanding policy loans than this same pro rata percentage.
2. (2) For each month in which a long term care benefit has been provided through early payment of a portion of a life insurance death benefit, the insurer shall provide a report to the policyholder showing the benefits paid during the month, the change in the life insurance policy cash value, loan balance and death benefit, and the amount of benefits remaining.
