BULLETIN 61 Group Insurance/Trust Agreements

September 9, 1982

This Department continues to receive inquiries evidencing an apparent lack of

understanding regarding the marketing of Group Life and/or Accident and Health

Insurance in the State of Vermont, particularly with respect to out-of-state group or group

trust insurance programs.

Please be advised that in order for a life and/or accident and health insurance group

program to be considered a lawful transaction in Vermont, the group arrangement itself

must be one which is permissible under the group life and/or health statutes contained in

Title 8, V.S.A.(Please refer to chapters 103 and 107 thereof.)

It does not matter that the group arrangement or program complies with the group

insurance statutes in any other state if, in fact, the arrangement is not permissible under

Vermont Statutes.

Kindly acknowledge receipt of this Bulletin by written communication to this

Department. An extra copy of this Bulletin is enclosed for this purpose.
