‘‘Except as provided in section 809(b), an association

not less than 60 days before the proposed termination 
date—
‘‘(1) provides to the participants and bene-
ficiaries a written notice of intent to terminate stat-
ing that such termination is intended and the pro-
posed termination date; 
‘‘(2) develops a plan for winding up the affairs 
of the plan in connection with such termination in 
a manner which will result in timely payment of all 
benefits for which the plan is obligated; and

‘‘SEC. 809. CORRECTIVE ACTIONS AND MANDATORY TERMI-
NATION. 
‘‘(a) ACTIONS
TO
AVOID
DEPLETION
OF
RE-
SERVES.—An association health plan which is certified 
under this part and which provides benefits other than
health insurance coverage shall continue to meet the re-
quirements of section 806, irrespective of whether such 
certification continues in effect. The board of trustees of 
such plan shall determine quarterly whether the require-
ments of section 806 are met. In any case in which the 
board determines that there is reason to believe that there 
is or will be a failure to meet such requirements, or the 
applicable authority makes such a determination and so 
notifies the board, the board shall immediately notify the 
qualified actuary engaged by the plan, and such actuary 
shall, not later than the end of the next following month, 
make such recommendations to the board for corrective 
action as the actuary determines necessary to ensure com-
pliance with section 806. Not later than 30 days after re-
ceiving from the actuary recommendations for corrective 
actions, the board shall notify the applicable authority (in 
such form and manner as the applicable authority may 
prescribe by regulation) of such recommendations of the 
actuary for corrective action, together with a description 
of the actions (if any) that the board has taken or plans 
to take in response to such recommendations. The board 
shall thereafter report to the applicable authority, in such 
form and frequency as the applicable authority may speci-
fy to the board, regarding corrective action taken by the 
board until the requirements of section 806 are met.
‘‘(b) MANDATORY TERMINATION.—In any case in 
which—
‘‘(1) the applicable authority has been notified 
under subsection (a) (or by an issuer of excess/stop 
loss insurance or indemnity insurance pursuant to 
section 806(a)) of a failure of an association health 
plan which is or has been certified under this part 
and is described in section 806(a)(2) to meet the re-
quirements of section 806 and has not been notified 
by the board of trustees of the plan that corrective 
action has restored compliance with such require-
ments; and 
‘‘(2) the applicable authority determines that 
there is a reasonable expectation that the plan will 
continue to fail to meet the requirements of section 
806, 
the board of trustees of the plan shall, at the direction 
of the applicable authority, terminate the plan and, in the 
course of the termination, take such actions as the appli-
cable authority may require, including satisfying any 
claims referred to in section 806(a)(2)(B)(iii) and recov-
ering for the plan any liability under subsection 
(a)(2)(B)(iii) or (e) of section 806, as necessary to ensure 
that the affairs of the plan will be, to the maximum extent
