§ 36-1452. Annual report - Penalties for failure to file - Waiver.

A.  On or before June 1 of each year, all licensed administrators shall file an annual report for the previous calendar year.  The report shall have been reviewed by a certified public accountant who shall be independent of the administrator.  The report shall be subscribed and sworn to by the president and attested to by the secretary or other proper officers substantiating that the information contained in the report is true and factual concerning each of the plans they administer which are governed pursuant to the provisions of the Third-party Administrator Act.  The report shall include the name and address of each fund and a statement of fund equity, paid claims by the covered unit, the accumulated year-to-date paid claims, and the year-to-date reserve status.  Failure of any third-party administrator to execute and file the annual reports as required by this section shall constitute cause, after notice and opportunity for hearing, for censure, suspension, or revocation of administrator licensure to transact business in this state, or a civil penalty of not less than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) or more than One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00) for each occurrence, or both censure, suspension, or revocation and civil penalty.

B.  If a licensed administrator has had no business or activity in the past calendar year, has not administered any insurance plans or business in the past calendar year and no funds are under the licensed administrator's oversight and administration, then the annual report described in subsection A of this section may be waived upon application to the Commissioner by the administrator. Upon applying for a waiver, the administrator shall state under oath that the administrator has had no business, has not administered any funds and the licensee's administration of claims has been dormant for the past calendar year.  The application must be submitted no later than May 1st on the form prescribed by the Commissioner.
