Art. 21.49-16
WAIVER
Art. 21.49-16 Sec. 2 of the Texas Insurance Code (see below) requires insurers who provide bids subject
to competitive bidding and competitive proposal requirements adopted under Section 252.021, Local
Government Code to submit the entire bid without qualifications. This statute also prohibits the
exclusion of an individual based on prior medical history who is otherwise eligible for coverage. Nor is
the insurer allowed to assign a higher deductible to such an individual.
This statute allows a municipality to waive these requirements.
Therefore in the interest of obtaining the most advantageous stop loss and/or other insurance for health
benefit coverage available under the circumstances, [municipality], waives both subsections (a) and (b)
of Article 21.29-16 Sec.2 (below).
