Section 55A. Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, a mid-term notice of cancellation of a workers' compensation policy shall be effective only if based on one or more of the following reasons:
(i)nonpayment of premium;
(ii)fraud or material misrepresentation affecting the policy or insured;
(iii)a substantial increase in the hazard insured against. Nothing in this section shall limit an insurer's right to refuse to renew a workers' compensation policy.
