The promoter of a contest or exhibition shall provide insurance coverage in the amount of $50,000 or more for each licensed contestant to provide medical, surgical and hospital care for licensed contestants who are injured while engaged in a contest or exhibition.2. The terms of the insurance coverage must not require the contestant to pay a deductible for the medical, surgical or hospital care for injuries he or she sustains while engaged in a contest or exhibition.3. If a licensed contestant pays for the medical, surgical or hospital care, the insurance proceeds must be paid to the contestant or the contestant's beneficiaries as reimbursement for the payment.4. A person who promotes an amateur contest or exhibition shall provide insurance coverage in the amount of $25,000 or more for each unarmed combatant who is not a licensed contestant to provide medical, surgical and hospital care for unarmed combatants who are injured while engaged in an amateur contest or exhibition.5. If a promoter or a person who promotes an amateur contest or exhibition fails to provide the insurance coverage required pursuant to this section and an unarmed combatant pays or incurs a monetary expense that would have otherwise been paid under the required insurance coverage, the Commission may order the promoter or person who promotes an amateur contest or exhibition to pay or reimburse the unarmed combatant up to the amount the insurance coverage would have paid or reimbursed if the promoter or person who promotes an amateur contest or exhibition had complied with this section. This provision is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any disciplinary action that may be taken against the promoter or person who promotes an amateur contest or exhibition for failing to comply with the provisions of this section.Nev.
