§ 1300.67.4. Subscriber and Group Contracts.
(C) A statement that, in the event of cancellation by either the plan (except in the case of fraud or deception in the use of services or facilities of the plan or knowingly permitting such fraud or deception by another) or the other party, the plan shall within 30 days return to the other part the pro rata portion of the money paid to plan which corresponds to any unexpired period for which payment had been received together with amounts due on claims, if any, less any amounts due the plan;
(E) A statement that receipt by the plan of the proper prepaid or periodic payment after cancellation of the contract for nonpayment shall reinstate the contract as though it had never been cancelled if such payment is received on or before the due date of the succeeding prepaid or periodic payment, provided, however, that the contract may specify one or more of the following methods by which the plan may avoid such reinstatement:
3. If such payment is received more than 15 days after issuance of the notice of cancellation, the plan issues to the other party, within 20 business days of receipt of such payment, a new contract accompanied by written notice stating clearly those respects in which the new contract differs from the cancelled contract in benefits, coverage or otherwise;
(9) A provision that (i) the plan is subject to the requirements of Chapter 2.2 of Division 2 of the Code and of Chapter 1 of Title 28 of the California Code of Regulations, and (ii) any provision required to be in the contract by either of the above shall bind the plan whether or not provided in the contract.
(10) A provision that, upon termination of a provider contract, the plan shall be liable for covered services rendered by such provider (other than for copayments as defined in subdivision (g) of Section 1345) to a subscriber or enrollee who retains eligibility under the applicable plan contract or by operation of law under the care of such provider at the time of such termination until the services being rendered to the subscriber or enrollee by such provider are completed, unless the plan makes reasonable and medically appropriate provision for the assumption of such services by a contracting provider.
(11) In the case of a group contract, a reasonable provision requiring the group contract holder to mail promptly to each subscriber a legible, true copy of any notice of cancellation of the plan contract which may be received from the plan and to provide promptly to the plan proof of such mailing and the date thereof, if the plan wishes to obligate the group contract holder in connection with the obligations imposed on the plan by Section 1300.65.
(2) Any express or implied requirement of notice to the other party, in the context of a group contact, requires notice to the group representative designated in the contract and, with respect to material matters, to subscribers and enrollees under the group contract; however, a plan may fulfill any obligation imposed by this section to notify subscribers and enrollees under a group contract if it provides notice to the group representative designated in the contract, and the group contract requires the group representative to disseminate such notice to subscribers and enrollees in the group by the next regular communication to the group but in no event later than 30 days after the receipt thereof.
