What does the term 'may-issue' state mean in the context of Massachusetts' LTC policies?

Licensing authorities have no discretion and must issue licenses

Licensing authorities have full discretion to deny licenses even if the applicant meets all legal requirements

This means that licensing authorities have the power to reject an applicant's request for a license, even if they meet all the legal requirements. In other words, they have full discretion in deciding who can obtain a license. Options A and C are incorrect because they suggest that licenses must be issued, which is not the case for 'may-issue' policies. Option D is incorrect because it refers to non-residents, while the question specifically mentions Massachusetts' policies.
