§ 388. Duties of the Board to Board of trustees

(a) Report to Board of trustees when the Board has cause to believe participant examined may be in danger of insolvency.

(b) The Board shall, at the inception of the participant's self-insured status and at least annually thereafter, so long as the participant remains self-insured, furnish the Board of trustees with a complete, original bound copy of each participant's audited annual financial statement performed in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards by an independent certified public accounting firm, three to five years of loss history, name of the individual or company to administer claims, and any other pertinent information submitted to the Board to authenticate the participant's self-insured status. The Board of trustees may contract for the services of a qualified certified public accountant or firm to review, analyze, and make recommendations on these documents. All financial information submitted by a participant shall be considered confidential and not public information.

(c) The Board of trustees shall make reports and recommendation to the Board on any matter germane to solvency, liquidation or rehabilitation of any participant. Reports and documents shall not be considered public documents.

(d) The Board of trustees shall review all applications and shall make recommendations to the Board for acceptance of self-insurers. If the Board rejects the recommendations of the Board of trustees, the Board shall notify the Board of trustees in writing within ten days prior to accepting the application for self-insurance.
