(2) A petition filed by a coordinated care organization under this section must contain the following information:

(a) The date of the compliance self-evaluative audit document.

(b) The identity of the person that conducted the audit.

(c) The general nature of the activities covered by the compliance audit.

(d) An identification of the portions of the compliance self-evaluative audit document for which the privilege is being asserted.

(3) Within 45 days after the filing of a petition by a coordinated care organization under this section, the court shall schedule an in camera hearing to determine whether the compliance self-evaluative audit document or portions of the document are privileged under ORS 415.062.

(4) The court, after an in camera review pursuant to this section, may require disclosure of material for which the privilege established by ORS 415.062 is asserted if the court determines that any of the conditions set forth in ORS 415.064 or 415.066 are met. Upon making such a determination, the court may compel the disclosure of only those portions of a compliance self-evaluative audit document relevant to issues in dispute in the underlying proceeding. Any disclosure that is compelled by the court will not be considered to be a public document or be deemed to be a waiver of the privilege for any other civil, criminal or administrative proceeding. A party unsuccessfully opposing disclosure may apply to the court for an appropriate order protecting the document from further disclosure.

(5) A coordinated care organization asserting the privilege established under ORS 415.062 has the burden of establishing that the privilege applies. If the coordinated care organization establishes that the privilege applies, a party seeking disclosure under ORS 415.064 has the burden of proving the elements set forth in ORS 415.064.
