This bill amends K.S.A. 2024 Supp. 40-2,239 to allow travel insurance to be classified and filed under both the accident and health line of insurance and the inland marine line of insurance. Specifically, it states that travel insurance providing coverage for sickness, accident, disability, or death during travel can be classified under either category. The bill also clarifies that travel insurance can be offered as individual, group, or blanket policies, and that eligibility and underwriting standards can be tailored based on specific travel protection plans, as long as they comply with the state's inland marine insurance standards.

Additionally, the bill repeals the existing section of K.S.A. 2024 Supp. 40-2,239 and changes the publication requirement from the "statute book" to the "Kansas register." These changes aim to modernize the classification of travel insurance and provide insurers with more flexibility in how they file and manage these policies.
