58-33-95. Transacting of insurance defined.
For the purposes of §§58-33-93 to 58-33-116, inclusive, the term, transacting of insurance, includes:
(1)Issuing a stop loss policy covering an employer located in this state. Stop loss policy coverage of an employer for claims incurred under the employer's self-funded health benefit plan is insurance, not reinsurance, regardless of whether the contract is described by the insurer as reinsurance;
(2)Issuing a stop loss policy to a trust or trustee, whether the trust or trustee is located in this state or otherwise, with an employer located in this state directly or indirectly the beneficiary of the trust;
(3)Agreeing to loan or advance funds to pay claims incurred under an employer's self-funded health benefit plan if the availability of funds to advance is significantly dependent on payment of contributions and the claims experience of two or more employers who have entered into similar loan or advance agreements; or
(4)Engaging in a risk distribution arrangement providing for compensation of loss through the provision of services, including an arrangement established through marketing or representations to consumers, without specification in a contract.
