        519A.9  GOVERNING BOARD.
         1.  The association shall be governed by a board of eleven
      directors of whom three shall be appointed annually by the
      commissioner to represent the licensed health care providers. Eight
      members shall be elected annually, except as provided in subsection
      2, by the members of the association. Vacancies on the board shall be
      filled for the remaining period of the term by majority vote of the
      remaining directors subject to approval of the commissioner.
         2.  The commissioner shall designate a time and place for a
      meeting of the members of the association at which the eight elected
      members serving on the board shall be elected.  The commissioner
      shall appoint the appointive members of the board on or before the
      date of the meeting.
         The commissioner may, prior to the first meeting of the members of
      the association, appoint an interim governing board of the
      association consisting of eight member insurers and three
      representatives of the licensed health care providers. The eight
      member insurers of that interim governing board shall serve until
      their successors are elected by the members of the association.  In
      appointing members of the association to the interim governing board,
      the commissioner shall consider among other things whether all member
      insurers are fairly represented.
