The provisions of 2 AAC 39.600 - 2 AAC 39.690 apply only so long as the plan administrator determines that a self-insured program of medical coverage is provided to enrollees. If a self-insured program ceases to exist, the plan administrator and the board will not hear appeals from denials of medical claims under AS 14.25.168 and AS 39.30.090.
