§4219. Administrative procedures
1. When the superintendent has cause to believe that grounds exist for the suspension or revocation of a certificate of authority, the superintendent shall notify the health maintenance organization and the Commissioner of Health and Human Services in writing specifically stating the grounds for suspension or revocation. The Commissioner of Health and Human Services, or the commissioner's designated representative, shall participate in any disciplinary proceedings.

The duration of and conditions attached to any suspension are determined by the superintendent after a hearing held in accordance with Title 5, chapter 375, subchapter IV.
