If warranted by investigation's findings, the commissioner shall require changes in the plan's reserving, accounting, or record keeping practices. These extraordinary audits are in addition to the commissioner's rights to examine self-insurance plans under Minnesota Statutes, section 60A.03, subdivisions 3, 5, and 6, and section 60A.031. Sufficient cause includes:

This filing and other filings required by this chapter and related statutes are subject to Minnesota Statutes, section 72A.061, as applicable to licensed insurance companies for comparable filings.
