Utah Code § 31A-22-609: Incontestability for accident and health insurance.

(1)

(a) A statement made by an applicant relating to the person's insurability, except fraudulent misrepresentation, may not be a basis for avoidance of a policy, coverage, or denial of a claim for loss incurred or disability commencing after the coverage has been in effect for two years.

(b) The insurer has the burden of proving fraud by clear and convincing evidence.

(2) Except as provided under Section 31A-22-605.1, a claim for loss incurred or disability commencing after two years from the date of issue of the policy may not be reduced or denied on the ground that a disease or physical condition existed prior to the effective date of coverage, unless the condition was excluded from coverage by name or specific description in a provision that was in effect on the date of loss.

(3) Except as provided in Subsection (1)(a), a specified disease policy may not include wording that provides a defense based upon a disease or physical condition that existed prior to the effective date of coverage except as allowed under Subsection 31A-22-605.1(2).
