A. Each licensed health maintenance organization, unless the time is extended for good cause shown, shall file a report with the Commissioner, certified by an audit of a certified public accounting firm, showing its financial condition on the last day of the preceding calendar year. The report shall be on the form adopted by the Commissioner and shall annually be filed with the Commissioner on or before the first day of March. The report shall be supplemented with a description of any changes in the information submitted with the last previous annual report or with the HMO's original application for a certificate of authority.

B. If the fiscal year of the HMO does not coincide with the calendar year, at the request of the HMO the Commissioner may, in his discretion, accept a certified audit showing the HMO's financial condition at the end of its last completed fiscal year, the audit to be accomplished by an annual report for the corresponding fiscal year to be filed on or before the 60th day following the last day of the fiscal year. As a condition for granting this exception, the Commissioner will require the HMO to also file on or before the first day of the following March an unaudited calendar year report.
