695A.152  Society required to comply with certain provisions concerning portability and availability of health insurance.

      1.  To the extent reasonably applicable, a fraternal benefit society shall comply with the provisions of NRS 689B.340 to 689B.590, inclusive, and chapter 689C of NRS relating to the portability and availability of health insurance offered by the society to its members. If there is a conflict between the provisions of this chapter and the provisions of NRS 689B.340 to 689B.590, inclusive, and chapter 689C of NRS, the provisions of NRS 689B.340 to 689B.590, inclusive, and chapter 689C of NRS control.

      2.  For the purposes of subsection 1, unless the context requires that a provision apply only to a group health plan or a carrier that provides coverage under a group health plan, any reference in those sections to “group health plan” or “carrier” must be replaced by “fraternal benefit society.”
