Section 70. Service of process

Suits, actions, and proceedings may be begun against any multiple employer welfare arrangement providing coverage in this Commonwealth by serving process on any trustee, director, officer, or agent of the plan, or, if none can be found, on the clerk of the Commission. If any multiple employer welfare arrangement that is not fully insured provides coverage in this Commonwealth without obtaining a license as required by 14VAC5-410-40 of this chapter, it shall be deemed to have thereby appointed the Clerk of the Commission its attorney for service of process. Service of process shall be made as provided for in Article 1 (§ 38.2-800 et seq.) of Chapter 8 of Title 38.2.
