(b) If the certificate of authority of a health maintenance organization is suspended, the health maintenance organization may not, during the period of the suspension, enroll additional enrollees except newborn children or other newly acquired dependents of existing enrollees, and may not engage in advertising or solicitation. The director may, by written order, specify limitations in the operation of the organization during the period of suspension as the director finds to be in the best interests of enrollees. (c) If the certificate of authority of a health maintenance organization is revoked, the organization shall, immediately following the effective date of the order of revocation, proceed to wind up its affairs, and may not conduct further business except that essential to the orderly conclusion of the affairs of the organization. The organization may not engage in further advertising or solicitation. The director may, by written order, permit continued operation of the organization as the director finds to be in the best interest of enrollees, so that enrollees will be afforded the greatest practical opportunity to obtain continuing health care coverage.
