12-2626.Application for membership in pool; written notice; approval; termination or cancellation of participation. (a) After the inception date of the group-funded pool, prospective new members of the pool shall submit an application for membership to the board of trustees or its administrator. The trustees may approve the application for membership pursuant to the bylaws of the pool.

(b) Before the time that membership in a group funded pool is granted, the applicant for such membership shall be provided a written notice stating that: (1) The group funded pool is not an insurance company subject to the general laws and rules and regulations relating to insurance companies; and (2) the group funded pool is subject to separate regulation by the Kansas insurance department as authorized by state statute and cannot commence or continue operations without a certificate of authority. Such authorization does not constitute an endorsement or recommendation of the coverage provided.

(c) Individual members may elect to terminate their participation in a pool or be subject to cancellation by the pool pursuant to the bylaws of the pool. On termination or cancellation of a workers' compensation member, the pool shall notify the division of workers' compensation within 10 days and shall maintain coverage of each cancelled or terminating member for 30 days after notice to such division or until such division gives notice that the cancelled or terminating member has procured workers' compensation and employers' liability insurance, whichever occurs first.
