Text
1.Death resulting from the withholding or withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment in accordance with NRS 449A.400 to 449A.481 , inclusive, does not constitute, for any purpose, a suicide or homicide.
2.The making of a declaration pursuant to NRS 449A.433 does not affect the sale, procurement or issuance of a policy of life insurance or annuity, nor does it affect, impair or modify the terms of an existing policy of life insurance or annuity. A policy of life insurance or annuity is not legally impaired or invalidated by the withholding or withdrawal of life-sustaining treatment from an insured, notwithstanding any term to the contrary.
3.A person may not prohibit or require the execution of a declaration as a condition for being insured for, or receiving, health care.
