SB 1310 - Current law authorizes the establishment of a medical malpractice joint underwriting association upon a determination that medical malpractice liability insurance is not reasonably available in the voluntary market. This act authorizes the directors of the board of the association to suspend the operations of the association if such directors determine that medical malpractice insurance is reasonably available. The suspension shall be in accordance with the plan of operations, and shall include provisions for the administration of association funds.

During any suspension of operations, the association shall not collect dues or fees from its members, unless authorized by the Director of the Department of Commerce and Insurance.
