Mississippi Code Title 83. Insurance § 83-41-341

(1) Any rehabilitation, liquidation or administrative supervision of a health maintenance organization shall be deemed to be the same as the rehabilitation, liquidation or administrative supervision of an insurance company and shall be conducted under the supervision of the commissioner pursuant to the law governing the rehabilitation, liquidation, and administrative supervision of insurance companies. The commissioner may apply for an order directing him to rehabilitate or liquidate a health maintenance organization upon any one or more grounds set out in Section 83-41-325 or when in his opinion the continued operation of the health maintenance organization would be hazardous either to the enrollees or to the people of this state. Enrollees shall have the same priority in the event of liquidation or rehabilitation as the law provides to policyholders of an insurer.

(2) For purpose of determining the priority of distribution of general assets, claims of enrollees and enrollees' beneficiaries shall have the same priority as established by the Rehabilitation and Liquidation Act (Section 83-24-1 et seq., Mississippi Code of 1972) for policyholders and beneficiaries of insureds of insurance companies. If an enrollee is liable to any provider for services provided pursuant to and covered by the health care plan, that liability shall have the status of an enrollee claim for distribution of general assets.

(3) Any provider who is obligated by statute or agreement to hold enrollees harmless from liability for services provided pursuant to and covered by a health care plan shall have a priority of distribution of the general assets immediately following that of enrollees and enrollees' beneficiaries as described herein, and immediately preceding the priority of distribution described in Section 83-24-1 et seq., Mississippi Code of 1972.
