510.13 - PAYMENT TO THIRD-PARTY ADMINISTRATOR.

        510.13  PAYMENT TO THIRD-PARTY ADMINISTRATOR.         If an insurer uses the services of a third-party administrator      under the terms of a written contract as required in section 510.12,      payment to the third-party administrator of any premiums or charges      for insurance by or on behalf of the insured shall be deemed to have      been received by the insurer, and the payment of return premiums or      claims by the insurer to the third-party administrator shall not be      deemed payment to the insured or claimant until the payments are      received by the insured or claimant.  This section does not limit any      right of the insurer against the third-party administrator resulting      from the third-party administrator's failure to make payments to the      insurer, insureds, or claimants.
