If an insurer uses the services of a third-party administrator under the terms of a written contract as required in section 510.12, payment to the third-party administrator of any premiums or charges for insurance by or on behalf of the insured shall be deemed to have been received by the insurer, and the payment of return premiums or claims by the insurer to the third-party administrator shall not be deemed payment to the insured or claimant until the payments are received by the insured or claimant. This section does not limit any right of the insurer against the third-party administrator resulting from the third-party administrator's failure to make payments to the insurer, insureds, or claimants.
