A hearing held pursuant to NRS 616B.775 must be open to the public, unless the Appeals Panel will be considering proprietary information of the employer or the insurer. As used in this section, the term "proprietary information" means any information which, if disclosed to the general public, may result in a competitive disadvantage to an insurer or employer, including, without limitation:
1. Rules, criteria and standards for underwriting policies that are applied by an insurer.
2. Plans or other documents concerning the marketing or strategic planning of an insurer or employer.
3. Data, studies and reports concerning the development of new products or services.
4. Data that identify the share of the market of an insurer within each class of risk.
