(2) Provisions in provider contracts that obligate the provider to provide services for the duration of the period after the HMO's insolvency for which premium payment has been made and until the enrollees' discharge from inpatient facilities;
(3) Insolvency reserves such as the Commissioner may require;
(4) Letters of credit acceptable to the Commissioner;
(5) Any other arrangements to assure that benefits are continued as specified above.
