A. Beginning July 1, 2011, employers shall contribute the percentage of the compensation of all of the members under their employment so that the total employer contributions equals the amount that the board determines is necessary to pay one-half of all benefits under and costs of administering the LTD program.
B. Beginning July 1, 2011, a member shall contribute a percentage of the member's compensation equal to the employer contribution for the member required pursuant to subsection A of this section.

D. Each employer shall certify on each payroll the amount to be contributed to the LTD program and shall remit that amount to the board. The contributions are irrevocable.
E. Payments due pursuant to this article by employers become delinquent after the due date prescribed in the board's rules and thereafter shall be increased by interest from and after that date until payment is received by the board. The board shall charge interest on the delinquent payments at an annual rate equal to the interest rate assumption approved by the board for actuarial equivalency pursuant to article 2 of this chapter. Delinquent payments due under this subsection, together with interest charges as provided in this subsection, may be recovered by an action in a court of competent jurisdiction against an employer liable for payments or, at the request of the director, may be deducted from any monies, including excise revenue taxes, payable to the employer by any department or agency of this state.
