6.28 Sec. 17. Minnesota Statutes 2010, section 79A.06, subdivision 5, is amended to read:
6.29 Subd. 5.
Private employers who have ceased to be self-insured. (a) Private
6.30employers who have ceased to be private self-insurers shall discharge their continuing
6.31obligations to secure the payment of compensation which is accrued during the period of
6.32self-insurance, for purposes of Laws 1988, chapter 674, sections 1 to 21, by compliance
6.33with all of the following obligations of current certificate holders:
6.34 (1) Filing reports with the commissioner to carry out the requirements of this chapter;
7.1 (2) Depositing and maintaining a security deposit for accrued liability for the
7.2payment of any compensation which may become due, pursuant to chapter 176. However,
7.3if a private employer who has ceased to be a private self-insurer purchases an insurance
7.4policy from an insurer authorized to transact workers' compensation insurance in this state
7.5which provides coverage of all claims for compensation arising out of injuries occurring
7.6during the entire period the employer was self-insured, whether or not reported during
7.7that period, the policy will:
7.8 (i) discharge the obligation of the employer to maintain a security deposit for the
7.9payment of the claims covered under the policy;
7.10 (ii) discharge any obligation which the self-insurers' security fund has or may have
7.11for payment of all claims for compensation arising out of injuries occurring during the
7.12period the employer was self-insured, whether or not reported during that period; and
7.13 (iii) discharge the obligations of the employer to pay any future assessments to
7.14the self-insurers' security fund; provided, however, that a member that terminates its
7.15self-insurance authority on or after August 1, 2010, shall be liable for an assessment under
7.16paragraph (b). The actuarial opinion shall not take into consideration any transfer of the
7.17member's liabilities to an insurance policy if the member obtains a replacement policy as
7.18described in this subdivision within one year of the date of terminating its self-insurance.
7.19 A private employer who has ceased to be a private self-insurer may instead buy an
7.20insurance policy described above, except that it covers only a portion of the period of time
7.21during which the private employer was self-insured; purchase of such a policy discharges
7.22any obligation that the self-insurers' security fund has or may have for payment of all
7.23claims for compensation arising out of injuries occurring during the period for which the
7.24policy provides coverage, whether or not reported during that period.
7.25 A policy described in this clause may not be issued by an insurer unless it has
7.26previously been approved as to
the insurer, form
, and substance by the commissioner; and
7.27 (3) Paying within 30 days all assessments of which notice is sent by the security
7.28fund, for a period of seven years from the last day its certificate of self-insurance was in
7.29effect. Thereafter, the private employer who has ceased to be a private self-insurer may
7.30either: (i) continue to pay within 30 days all assessments of which notice is sent by the
7.31security fund until it has no incurred liabilities for the payment of compensation arising
7.32out of injuries during the period of self-insurance; or (ii) pay the security fund a cash
7.33payment equal to four percent of the net present value of all remaining incurred liabilities
7.34for the payment of compensation under sections
176.101 and
176.111 as certified by a
7.35member of the casualty actuarial society. Assessments shall be based on the benefits paid
8.1by the employer during the calendar year immediately preceding the calendar year in
8.2which the employer's right to self-insure is terminated or withdrawn.
8.3 (b) With respect to a self-insurer who terminates its self-insurance authority after
8.4April 1, 1998, that member shall obtain and file with the commissioner an actuarial
8.5opinion of its outstanding liabilities as determined by an associate or fellow of the
8.6Casualty Actuarial Society within 120 days of the date of its termination. If the actuarial
8.7opinion is not timely filed, the self-insurers' security fund may, at its discretion, engage
8.8the services of an actuary for this purpose. The expense of this actuarial opinion must be
8.9assessed against and be the obligation of the self-insurer. The commissioner may issue
8.10a certificate of default against the self-insurer for failure to pay this assessment to the
8.11self-insurers' security fund as provided by section
79A.04, subdivision 9. The opinion
8.12may discount liabilities up to four percent per annum to net present value. Within 60 days
8.13after notification of approval of the actuarial opinion by the commissioner, the exiting
8.14member shall pay to the security fund an amount determined as follows: a percentage will
8.15be determined by dividing the security fund's members' deficit as determined by the most
8.16recent audited financial statement of the security fund by the total actuarial liability of all
8.17members of the security fund as calculated by the commissioner within 30 days of the
8.18exit date of the member. This quotient will then be multiplied by that exiting member's
8.19total future liability as contained in the exiting member's actuarial opinion. If the payment
8.20is not made within 30 days of the notification, interest on it at the rate prescribed by
8.21section
549.09 must be paid by the former member to the security fund until the principal
8.22amount is paid in full.
8.23 (c) A former member who terminated its self-insurance authority before April 1,
8.241998, who has paid assessments to the self-insurers' security fund for seven years, and
8.25whose annualized assessment is $15,000 or less, may buy out of its outstanding liabilities
8.26to the self-insurers' security fund by an amount calculated as follows:
1.35 multiplied by
8.27the indemnity case reserves at the time of the calculation, multiplied by the then current
8.28self-insurers' security fund annualized assessment rate.
8.29 (d) A former member who terminated its self-insurance authority before April 1,
8.301998, and who is paying assessments within the first seven years after ceasing to be
8.31self-insured under paragraph (a), clause (3), may elect to buy out its outstanding liabilities
8.32to the self-insurers' security fund by obtaining and filing with the commissioner an
8.33actuarial opinion of its outstanding liabilities as determined by an associate or fellow of
8.34the Casualty Actuarial Society. The opinion must separate liability for indemnity benefits
8.35from liability for medical benefits, and must discount each up to four percent per annum to
8.36net present value. Within 30 days after notification of approval of the actuarial opinion
9.1by the commissioner, the member shall pay to the security fund an amount equal to 120
9.2percent of that discounted outstanding indemnity liability, multiplied by the greater of the
9.3average annualized assessment rate since inception of the security fund or the annual rate
9.4at the time of the most recent assessment.
9.5 (e) A former member who has paid the security fund according to paragraphs (b) to
9.6(d) and subsequently receives authority from the commissioner to again self-insure shall be
9.7assessed under section
79A.12, subdivision 2, only on indemnity benefits paid on injuries
9.8that occurred after the former member received authority to self-insure again; provided
9.9that the member furnishes verified data regarding those benefits to the security fund.
9.10 (f) In addition to proceedings to establish liabilities and penalties otherwise
9.11provided, a failure to comply may be the subject of a proceeding before the commissioner.
9.12An appeal from the commissioner's determination may be taken pursuant to the contested
9.13case procedures of chapter 14 within 30 days of the commissioner's written determination.
9.14 Any current or past member of the self-insurers' security fund is subject to service of
9.15process on any claim arising out of chapter 176 or this chapter in the manner provided by
9.16section
5.25, or as otherwise provided by law. The issuance of a certificate to self-insure
9.17to the private self-insured employer shall be deemed to be the agreement that any process
9.18which is served in accordance with this section shall be of the same legal force and effect
9.19as if served personally within this state.
