The record keeping system of a licensee shall be sufficient if the licensee makes the required information reasonably available. The department shall determine the sufficiency of the records and whether the licensee has made the required information reasonably available. The department shall be given free access to the records wherever located. The records concerning any CPAP transaction shall be retained for two (2) years after making the final entry relating to the CPAP transaction. A person licensed or required to be licensed under this article is subject to IC 28-1-2-30.5 with respect to any records maintained by the person.

     (b) If the director designates under section 4 of this chapter the NMLSR as the sole entity responsible for performing any of the activities described in section 4(a) of this chapter, the unique identifier of any licensee must be clearly shown on all CPAP transaction documents furnished by the licensee to a consumer claimant and on any other documents as required by the director.

     (c) If the director designates under section 4 of this chapter the NMLSR as the sole entity responsible for performing any of the activities described in section 4(a) of this chapter, a CPAP provider that is licensed by the department under this article and that engages in CPAP transactions shall submit to the NMLSR a call report, which must be in the form and contain information the NMLSR requires, if required by the director.

     (d) A CPAP provider required to be licensed under this article shall file with the department a composite report as required by the department, but not more frequently than annually, in the form prescribed by the department relating to all CPAP transactions entered into by the licensee. The department shall consult with comparable officials in other states for the purpose of making the kinds of information required in the reports uniform among the states.
