Current through Public Act 148 of the 2024 Legislative Session
Section 418.501a - Liability of self-insurer's security fund; termination on January 1, 2020; responsibility of PEGSISF on and after January 1, 2020; assessment(1) The liability of the self-insurers' security fund under this act for any payment of claims made against a self-insured member of a private employer group self-insurer terminates on January 1, 2020. The PEGSISF is responsible for payment of eligible claims made against the PEGSISF on and after January 1, 2020, and for claims against a private employer group self-insurer for which the self-insurers' security fund was formerly liable under this act.(2) If the director determines that a trust established under R 408.43s(2) of the Michigan administrative code is reasonably likely to be insufficient to fulfill the liability for claims made against the self-insured members of a private employer group self-insurer before January 1, 2020, the director may assess all private employer group self-insurers based on the proportion of the total paid losses, as defined in section 551(3)(b), of each private employer group self-insurer paid in the prior year to cover the cost of benefits incurred. An assessment made under this subsection is payable to the trust to satisfy liability for those claims.Added by 2014, Act 229,s 1, eff. 6/27/2014.
