SUMMARY
Committee Amendment "A" creates the Maine Guaranteed Access Reinsurance Association, which is authorized to assess each insurer an amount not to exceed $4 per month per enrollee, and an unspecified additional amount to cover net losses. This amendment eliminates the association's authority to impose the health assessment. In addition, this amendment eliminates the authorization for the association to borrow funds.
