Cal. INS § 799 — California Code / Code ins / Division 1 / Part 2 / Chapter 1 / Article 6.9 / Section 799
Section 799
Status: in_force

(a) The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:

(1) Article 6.9 (commencing with Section 799) of Chapter 1 of Part 2 of Division 1 of the Insurance Code was originally enacted in 1988 and was last amended in 1997. These laws require an update to reflect advancements in testing and medical treatments for individuals living with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

(2) When the HIV/AIDS epidemic began in the United States, HIV was considered a life-threatening condition because relatively little was known at the time about HIV detection, transmission, or treatment. Today, however, just as with other chronic health conditions, HIV can be effectively managed.

(3) According to data collected by the Antiretroviral Therapy Cohort Collaboration from 1996 to 2013, inclusive, modern antiretroviral therapy (ART) is more sophisticated than original treatments, causes fewer adverse effects, and results in a life expectancy similar to people not living with HIV.

(4) The National Institutes of Health notes that ART can suppress an individual’s viral load to a point where HIV is undetectable in the blood, and the chance of HIV developing into AIDS is reduced.

(5) Research shows that in recent years, people living with HIV who are receiving treatment have a life expectancy of approximately 70 to 78 years or more, depending on other determinants of health and how early treatment was commenced, compared to a life expectancy of 39 years in 1996. The risk of death due to AIDS-related causes has declined dramatically.

(6) It is now possible for HIV-positive individuals to have an average life expectancy. They should have the same opportunities as other individuals with chronic medical conditions to purchase life insurance and disability income insurance.

(b) It is, therefore, the intent of the Legislature to ensure the equitable health and well-being of all people living in California.

(c) The purposes of this article are to do all of the following:

(1) Establish standards that prevent life or disability income insurers from making or permitting unfair distinctions between individuals of the same class in underwriting life insurance or disability income insurance for individuals living with HIV.

(2) Require the maintenance of strict confidentiality for personal information obtained through testing.

(3) Require informed consent before a life or disability income insurer tests for HIV.
