Missouri HB2071 suspends operations of a joint underwriting association if medical malpractice liability insurance is available in the voluntary.

Missouri HB2071 amends Section 383.155, RSMo, to allow suspension of a joint underwriting association's operations if medical malpractice liability insurance is reasonably available in the voluntary market for at least two consecutive years. The suspension follows a public hearing and must adhere to the association's plan of operation. The plan outlines the process for suspension, administration of funds, and resumption or termination of operations. The association cannot collect dues or fees during suspension unless authorized by the director.
