§ 779.7. If a creditor requires a debtor to make any payment for credit life insurance or

If a creditor requires a debtor to make any payment for credit life insurance or credit disability insurance, and an individual policy or group certificate of insurance is not delivered to the debtor at the time the insurance commences, a copy of the application for such policy or a notice of proposed insurance, signed by the debtor and setting forth the name and home office address of the insurer, the name or names of the debtor, the premium or amount of payment by the debtor separately for credit life insurance and credit disability insurance, the amount, term and a brief description of the coverage provided, shall be delivered to the debtor at the time such indebtedness is incurred, or at the time the debtor applies for such insurance, whichever is later. The copy of the application for, or notice of proposed insurance shall refer exclusively to insurance coverage, and shall be separate and apart from the loan, sale or other credit statement of account, instrument or agreement, unless the information required by this subsection is prominently set forth therein. Upon acceptance of the insurance by the insurer and within thirty (30) days of the date upon which (1) the indebtedness is incurred, (2) the application for such insurance is received by the insurer, or (3) the insurer determines the evidence of insurability, if required, to be satisfactory, the insurer shall cause the individual policy or group certificate of insurance to be delivered to the debtor. Said application or notice of proposed insurance shall state that upon acceptance by the insurer, the insurance shall become effective either as of the date the indebtedness is incurred or the date of application for such insurance, whichever is applicable; provided that where evidence of insurability is required and such evidence is furnished more than thirty (30) days after either the date when the debtor becomes obligated to the creditor or the date the debtor applies for such insurance, which ever is applicable, the term of the insurance shall commence on the date on which the insurance company determines the evidence to be satisfactory, and in such event there shall be an appropriate refund or adjustment of any charge to the debtor for insurance. A debtor shall not be deemed to be required to make any payment for credit life insurance or credit disability insurance unless the cost of the credit transaction to the debtor varies depending upon whether or not such insurance is procured.
