Sec. 562.051.  MISREPRESENTATION REGARDING DISCOUNT HEALTH CARE PROGRAM.  It is an unfair method of competition or an unfair or deceptive act or practice in the business of discount health care programs to:
(1)  misrepresent the price range of discounts offered by the discount health care program;
(2)  misrepresent the size or location of the program's network of providers;
(3)  misrepresent the participation of a provider in the program's network;
(4)  suggest that a discount card offered through the program is a federally approved Medicare prescription discount card;
(5)  use the term "insurance," except as:
(A)  a disclaimer of any relationship between the discount health care program and insurance; or
(B)  a description of an insurance product connected with a discount health care program; or
(6)  use the term "health plan," "coverage," "copay," "copayments," "deductible," "preexisting conditions," "guaranteed issue," "premium," "PPO," or "preferred provider organization," or another similar term, in a manner that could reasonably mislead an individual into believing that the discount health care program is health insurance or provides coverage similar to health insurance.
