(6) A New York State partnership program insured who replaces a New York State partnership program qualified policy/certificate with long term care insurance from a non-partnership state or non-reciprocal state is ineligible for Medicaid asset protection from New York State.
(7) A New York State partnership program insured who purchases a policy/certificate marketed as protecting all assets upon becoming eligible for Medicaid in New York State shall only be eligible for Medicaid asset protection in a reciprocal state in an amount equal to the benefits paid by the New York State partnership program qualified policy/certificate.
(8) A New York State partnership program insured who replaces a New York State partnership qualified policy/certificate with a policy/certificate under a partnership program of another state shall only be eligible for asset protection in New York State in an amount equal to the benefits paid by the policy/certificate under a partnership program of the other state.
(9) An insured who replaces a New York State partnership program qualified policy/certificate with an individual long term care insurance policy not approved by New York State shall be ineligible for the New York State long term care insurance income tax credit for the premiums paid for the replacing individual policy of the other state.
(b) A disclosure statement, including the explanations of this section, shall accompany or be incorporated in a qualified policy/certificate under the program when the qualified policy/certificate is delivered to the insured or delivered to the applicant at the time application is made for the qualified policy/certificate. The insurer shall obtain an acknowledgement of receipt or certification of delivery of a disclosure statement that included the explanations of this section.
