Monies that are to be paid by any insurance carrier, other than a carrier that is being discontinued, as experience rating dividends or unused claim reserves resulting from health and accident coverage provided pursuant to this article shall be paid to the department of administration. All such monies received by the department from such carriers shall be deposited, pursuant to sections 35-146 and 35-147, by the department within five days after receipt in a trust account to be administered by the department of administration.
All such monies that are to be paid by an insurance carrier that will no longer continue as a carrier providing coverage pursuant to this article shall be paid to the department of administration.
