This section does not prohibit territorial limitations.3. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2, no issuer of long-term care insurance may deny a claim because services are provided in a state other than the state in which the long-term care insurance contract or certificate was issued when the state in which services are provided:(a) Does not license, certify or register providers as required in the long-term care insurance contract or certificate, but the provider otherwise satisfies the requirements of the long-term care insurance contract or certificate; or(b) Licenses, certifies or registers providers under another name.4. For the purposes of this section, "preexisting condition" means a medical condition of a person for which he or she has received treatment during the 6 months preceding the effective date of the long-term care insurance contract.Nev.
