A. The commission may prescribe procedures for the effective monitoring of actual experience under any form subject to this chapter.
B. The commission may request information subsequent to approval of a policy form or rate revision so that it may determine whether premium rates are reasonable in relation to the benefits provided as specified herein in 14VAC5-130-65 and 14VAC5-130-75.
C. If the commission finds that the premium rate filed in accordance with this chapter is or will not meet the originally filed and approved loss ratio, the commission may require appropriate rate adjustments, premium refunds or premium credits as deemed necessary for the coverage to conform with the minimum loss ratio standards set forth in 14VAC5-130-65, and which are expected to result in a loss ratio at least as great as that originally anticipated in the rates used to produce current rates by the health insurance issuer for the coverage. The commission may take into consideration any previous or expected premium refunds or credits. Detailed supporting documents will be required as necessary to justify the adjustment.
