A. Any mutual assessment life, accident and sickness insurer which chooses to remove itself from the provisions of this chapter by becoming an insurer licensed pursuant to Chapter 10 (§ 38.2-1000 et seq.) of this title may do so by meeting the requirements of that chapter. When applying for a license pursuant to Chapter 10, an insurer shall submit an application to the Commission that shows that each requirement of Chapter 10 has been met. If the applicant does not meet these requirements, the applicant may submit for approval a plan that includes a schedule for meeting these requirements.
The schedule must provide for compliance with these requirements within five years of the approval of the application. The Commission may grant an additional period in order to achieve compliance with the requirements of Chapter 10 after an informal hearing.
B. If the Commission approves the application, the insurer shall have all the rights, privileges and responsibilities of a licensed insurer not subject to the provisions of this chapter.
C. The Commission, upon failure of the applicant to comply with the terms of an approved schedule, may require the applicant to adhere to the requirements of this chapter.
