Edition and licensing notes

Publisher. Massachusetts Division of Insurance (mass.gov)

Edition. No printed effective/amendment-date statement appears in the regulation's own text (checked Sections 133.01-133.09 and the closing Regulatory Authority line). The PDF's own embedded metadata (read via pdf.js getMetadata(), not fabricated) gives CreationDate 2004-07-09 and ModDate 2013-05-16, so 2013-05-16 is recorded here as the most recent verifiable revision signal; this is a file-metadata date, not a publisher-printed edition statement, and should be treated accordingly.

Status. Massachusetts state administrative regulation; public domain (state government edict).
