Virginia Code § 38.2-4306 mandates HMO benefits, focusing on comprehensive care. Option A (wellness programs) is common, promoting prevention (e.g., smoking cessation). Option C (24-hour emergency care) is required, ensuring access via PCP coordination or direct ER services. Option D (outpatient services) is standard, covering clinic visits. Option B (discounts on local health spa memberships) isn’t a typical HMO feature; while some plans offer wellness incentives, spa discounts are ancillary, not a core benefit under Virginia law or NAIC HMO models. The study guide likely lists HMO staples (A, C, D) with examples—e.g., annual checkups (D)—contrasting them with optional perks like B, making it the exception.

Detailed Answer in Step-by-Step Solution:

The "time limit on certain defenses" provision (B), often tied to incontestability, limits the insurer’s ability to deny claims based on application errors after a period (e.g., 2 years), unless fraud is proven.

Legal actions (A) governs lawsuits, grace period (C) covers premium delays, and time payment of claims (D) sets claim payment deadlines—none relate to application defenses.

The Virginia study guide explains that the time limit on certain defenses provision protects insureds by restricting post-issuance claim denials after a contestable period, absent fraud.

Virginia’s long-term care (LTC) rules allow certain exclusions (e.g., war, alcoholism/drug addiction, intentionally self-inflicted injury) but prohibit disease-specific exclusions for conditions like Alzheimer’s or senile dementia. Exact extract: “No long-term care insurance policy or certificate may exclude or limit coverage for Alzheimer’s disease, senile dementia, organic brain disorder, or other demonstrable organic disease.” Permitted exclusions include: “loss resulting from war or act of war,” “alcoholism and drug addiction,” and “intentionally self-inflicted injury.”
