Maryland law allows insurers to consider medical conditions (A) as part of the underwriting process, provided it is done fairly and within legal boundaries.

Race (B), Gender (C), and Creed (D): Discrimination based on these factors is strictly prohibited under Maryland’s anti-discrimination laws and the Unfair Trade Practices Act.

Insurers must comply with state and federal regulations, ensuring underwriting decisions are based on actuarially justified factors, such as health and lifestyle, rather than prohibited discriminatory criteria.
