Section 125.204 - Procedures following default
Current through Register Vol. 54, No. 38, September 21, 2024
(a) After the Bureau declares a default, it will determine whether the liabilities of the self-insurer exceed or are less than the self-insurer's security.
(b) If the defaulting self-insurer's liabilities are less than the security, the Bureau will notify the custodian of the security that it shall utilize the security to cure the default. The Bureau will monitor payments made by the custodian of the security to ensure that compensation is paid as due under the act or the Occupational Disease Act.
(c) If at any time the defaulting self-insurer's liabilities exceed or can reasonably be expected to exceed the security, the Bureau will order payment of the security into a self-insurer account within the appropriate custodial account. The funds deposited into each self-insurer account and the interest thereon will be used solely for the payment of compensation or costs associated therewith to employes of the defaulting self-insurer providing the security.
(d) After the assets of a self-insurer account have been exhausted, compensation shall be paid from funds obtained through assessments made and collected under section 907 of the act (77 P. S. § 1037.7) and related provisions of this subchapter and interest thereon.
