1. If the Commissioner believes that a temporary certificate is necessary to carry on the business of facilitating selection of a qualified health plan, the Commissioner may issue a temporary certificate as an exchange enrollment facilitator for 180 days or less without requiring an examination to:
(a) The surviving spouse, personal representative or guardian of an exchange enrollment facilitator who dies or becomes incompetent or incapacitated, to allow adequate time for the sale of the business, the recovery or return of the exchange enrollment facilitator, or the training and certification of new personnel to operate the business;
(b) A member or employee of a business organization appointed by the Exchange, upon the death or disability of the natural person designated in its application or certificate;
(c) The designee of an exchange enrollment facilitator entering active service in the Armed Forces of the United States; or
(d) A person in any other circumstance in which the Commissioner believes that the public interest will be best served by issuing the certificate.
2. The Commissioner may by order limit the authority of a person who holds a temporary certificate as the Commissioner believes necessary to protect persons insured and the public. The Commissioner may require the person who holds a temporary certificate to have a suitable sponsor who is an exchange enrollment facilitator and who assumes responsibility for all acts of the person who holds the temporary certificate, and may impose similar requirements to protect persons insured and the public. The Commissioner may order revocation of a temporary certificate if the interests of persons insured or the public are endangered. A temporary certificate expires when the owner or the personal representative or guardian of the owner disposes of the business.
