2021 Colorado Code|Title 10 - Insurance|Article 16 - Health Care Coverage|Part 3 - Nonprofit Hospital, Medical-Surgical, and Health Service Corporations|§ 10-16-315. Revocation of Certificate - Appeal

  The commissioner shall not make public the result of any examination or investigation of any corporation found to be insolvent or with its capital impaired prior to suspending or revoking the authority of such company to do business in this state. If the commissioner determines, after examination, hearing, or other evidence, that such corporation is in an unsound condition, or has failed to comply with the law, or with the provisions of its charter, or that its condition is, or its methods are, such as to render its operations hazardous to the public, or to its subscribers, or that its actual assets, exclusive of its capital, are less than its liabilities, or if its officers or agents refuse to submit to examination, or to perform any legal obligation relative thereto, or refuse on behalf of the corporation to pay the examination charges, the commissioner shall suspend or revoke all certificates of authority granted to said corporation, and to its officers or agents, and shall cause notice thereof to be published in one or more daily newspapers published in the city and county of Denver, which shall have a general state circulation, and no solicitation of new business shall thereafter be done by it or its agents in this state while such default or disability continues, nor until its authority to do business is restored. Before suspending or revoking the certificate of authority of any such corporation, unless it is insolvent or its capital impaired, the commissioner shall grant fifteen days in which to show cause why such action should not be taken.    A corporation whose certificate of authority has been suspended or revoked by the commissioner, may appeal any such action to the court of appeals pursuant to section 24-4-106 (11), C.R.S.    The court has the power to make an order suspending or staying the order of the commissioner suspending or revoking the license of a corporation pending the appeal; but the corporation appealing shall give a bond, with sureties satisfactory to the court, in such amount as the court determines to be just and proper, conditioned to pay to the state and to any persons whomsoever any loss that may be sustained by reason of the stay or suspension of such order of said commissioner, and that during the period allowed for taking such appeal, the publication of notice of the revocation or suspension of license of such corporation as provided by this section shall not be made. If the order of the commissioner has been stayed or suspended by the order of said court, such publication shall not be made until after the discharge of such stay or until the affirmation of such order of revocation or suspension.    (Deleted by amendment,L. 92, p. 1598, § 122, effective July 1, 1992.)      In the event of such a finding of insolvency, the commissioner shall have and exercise all of the powers and authority set forth in part 5 of article 3 of this title.
