Section 89.13 - Use of certain words and terms(a) The use of policy captions or descriptions such as "all coverage" or "complete coverage" is prohibited. The purpose of this section is to prevent misunderstanding in the minds of the insured public.(b) A policy form bearing a caption or reference that this is a "Pennsylvania" policy or a "Standard" policy will not be considered for approval, except if the forms are so designated by statute or Departmental regulation. The purpose of this section is to prevent misunderstanding in the minds of the insured public. Use of words or abbreviations thereof as a part of the distinguishing form number are acceptable, however, if deemed necessary or convenient to the identification of the form.(c) The word "special" may not be used which might reasonably cause the insured to believe that he is receiving preferential treatment.(d) The word "compensation" may not be used which might reasonably cause the policyholder to be confused with workmen's compensation coverage.
