044-13 Wyo. Code R. § 13-16
These regulations shall be effective immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State's office. STATEMENT OF PRINCIPAL REASONS
FOR
Amendments to Chapter 13 of Wyoming Insurance Department Regulation
Regulation Governing Health Maintenance Organizations
The purpose of these regulations is to implement Chapter 34 of the Wyoming Insurance Code; "The Health Maintenance Organization Act of 1995."
The primary purpose of these amendments is to correct citings in Section 1. Authority, to the Wyoming Insurance Code which have no applicability to the Regulation. W.S. § 26-34-103(e) refers to the commissioner promulgating rules and regulations exempting from the filing requirements under certificate of authority and W.S. § 26-34-115. refers to uncovered expenditures insolvency deposit. Nothing in the Regulation promulgates rules affecting these two areas.
Section 14. Certificate of need is eliminated in its entirety as the certificate of need process was repealed in 1986. Subsequent sections are renumbered, accordingly.
Additional amendments to this Chapter are to change the chapter numbering and the chapter pagination.
Presently the Chapter is designated by the Roman number symbol "XIII." It will be amended to be designated by the Arabic number symbol "13."
Pagination of the chapter will be amended from the present continuous and sequential numbering from chapter-to-chapter, to chapter-specific numbering. As an example, each page will be designated first by a chapter number and then page number, as in 13-1, 13-2, 13-3, etc. Amending the method by which the pages are numbered will allow for simpler amendments in the future, and for easier reader identification of the chapter and pages with which they are concerned.
