Final answer:

The contract is not in force without the initial premium being paid.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that is true is: The contract is not in force without the initial premium being paid. The initial premium is a payment made to the insurance company to initiate and activate the health insurance policy. Without the initial premium being paid, the contract is not considered valid, and the insurance coverage does not begin.
