(b) On or before June 1st of every year following a plan year in which an adjustment was made pursuant to section 365.4 of this Part, the superintendent shall disburse the moneys in the COVID-19 risk adjustment pool collected pursuant to subdivision (a) of this section, to those insurers who have made payments pursuant to subdivision (a) of this section, in proportion to the actual claims experience of those insurers related to COVID-19 claims. Provided, however, that:

1. (1) no disbursement shall be made to an insurer that would render the total payments made to that insurer from this mechanism greater than the amount it paid in COVID-19 claims;

2. (2) any disbursement that would be made to an insurer who obtained an immediate relief payment under section 365.2 of this Part shall be reduced proportionately based on the total amount of COVID-19 claims compared to the total relief payments received and the funds subject to such reduction shall instead:

   1. (i) if the relief payment was funded entirely by contributions of the State Insurance Fund, be disbursed to the State Insurance Fund; or
   2. (ii) if the relief payment was not funded entirely by contributions of the State Insurance Fund, be disbursed proportionately to each insurer that made a contribution that funded the relief payment.
3. (3) Any disbursement that would be made to an insurer who obtained an immediate relief payment under section 365.2 of this Part that has failed to make interest payments as required shall be withheld and the superintendent may disburse the funds to cover the interest obligation of the insurer, provided that if the amount withheld is greater than the remaining interest obligation of the insurer, then excess funds shall be disbursed to all other insurers who have made payments pursuant to subdivision (a) of this section, in proportion to the actual claims experience of those insurers related to COVID-19 claims.

(d) For the purposes of this section the term insurer shall include the State Insurance Fund. The term may also include self-insured employers in the discretion of the superintendent, who shall render such a decision after reviewing the actual COVID-19 claims experience for the entire market.

1. (1) No insurer that received an immediate relief payment under this Part shall be permitted to discontinue offering coverage for disability and family leave benefits before the entire amount received has been recouped pursuant to this section and the entire interest obligation has been repaid.
2. (2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1) of this subdivision, an insurer who has, outside of the recoupment process described in section 365.4 of this Part, paid to each insurer that funded the relief payment it received an amount equal to the relief payment and the total amount of interest required to be paid may request to discontinue offering coverage for disability and family leave benefits in accordance with section 363.6(l) and (m) of this Title, subject to such other requirements as may be applicable.
3. (3) In the event that an insurer exits the market for family leave benefits and the total amount of immediate relief payments it received or any interest obligation it has related to such payments has not been repaid such amounts shall be combined and treated as COVID-19 claims costs incurred by the insurer or insurers who funded the immediate relief payment. Any interest obligation of the insurer shall thereafter be paid by the exiting insurer into the COVID-19 risk adjustment pool.
