Summary

The bill changes Missouri law so that life insurance policies can exclude coverage for suicide for up to two years after the policy is issued, instead of the current one‑year limit. The same two‑year rule applies when a policyholder adds or increases death benefits. Insurers must promptly refund premiums for any coverage that is excluded because of suicide.
