Each contract between a prepaid limited health service organization and a provider or other person subcontracting for the provision of a limited health service to enrollees on a prepayment basis or any other basis must contain the following terms and conditions:
1. If the prepaid limited health service organization fails to pay for a limited health service for any reason, including, but not limited to, insolvency or breach of this contract, the enrollees are not liable to the provider for any money owed to the provider pursuant to this contract.
2. A provider, agent, trustee or assignee thereof may not maintain an action at law or attempt to collect from an enrollee any money which the prepaid limited health service organization owes to the provider.
3. These provisions do not prohibit the collection of any uncovered charges which an enrollee agreed to pay or the collection of any copayment from an enrollee.
4. These provisions survive the termination of this contract, regardless of the reason for the termination.
5. The termination of this contract does not release the provider from its obligation to complete any procedure on an enrollee who is receiving treatment for a specific condition for a period not to exceed 60 days, at the same schedule of copayment or any other applicable charge in effect when this contract is terminated.
6. Any amendment to the provisions of this contract must be submitted to the Commissioner for approval before the amendment is effective.
