(a) An integrated care network shall meet minimum solvency and financial requirements as provided by the Medicaid Agency. The Medicaid Agency shall require the integrated care network, as a condition of certification or continued certification, to maintain minimum solvency and financial reserves. The Medicaid Agency shall hereafter promulgate rules setting forth requirements for minimum solvency, financial reserves, and other financial requirements of an integrated care network based on the number of integrated care networks that may be certified and based on actuarial soundness as determined by the Medicaid Agency. The Medicaid Agency shall allow for the requirements to be met through the submission of an irrevocable letter of credit in an amount equal to the financial reserves that would otherwise be required of the integrated care network, to guarantee the performance of the provisions of the risk contract. If an irrevocable letter of credit is used, it shall be issued by a federally or Alabama state chartered banking institution with assets in excess of four billion dollars ($4,000,000,000) and in a form approved by the Medicaid Agency. No assets of the integrated care network shall be pledged or encumbered in connection with the irrevocable letter of credit.
