(2) Upon written application by any MCO, the commissioner may, if not inconsistent with any statutory requirement to the contrary, extend a filing date or grant an exemption from compliance with any and all provisions of this Subpart if the commissioner finds, upon review of the application, that compliance with this Subpart would constitute a financial or organizational hardship upon the MCO. A MCO shall file an application for a hardship exemption with the commissioner prior to the event or period for which the extension or exemption is being requested. The MCO shall file, with its annual statement filing, both its request for relief and the approval of that request with the states that it is licensed in or doing business in and the NAIC. If a nondomestic state accepts electronic filing with the NAIC, the MCO shall file the approval in an electronic format acceptable to the NAIC.
