(a) For each payroll period, each state agency shall certify with each payroll, the amount of each self-insurance assessment for such state agency, not in conflict with appropriations therefor. The director of accounts and reports shall transfer the amount of each self-insurance assessment for such state agency to the credit of the state workers compensation self-insurance fund.

(b) Each July 1, the secretary of administration shall determine a self-insurance assessment rate for each state agency based upon the accidental injury and occupational disease experience of the state agency and the liability of the state workers compensation self-insurance fund as provided in subsection (c) of Kan. Stat. Ann. § 44-575, and amendments thereto. Such rate shall be expressed as a percentage. The secretary of administration shall utilize actuarial and other professional assistance in determining self-insurance assessment rates under this section. On or before each July 30, the secretary of administration shall notify each state agency of such agency’s projected self-insurance assessment rate for the next fiscal year and such agency’s actual self-insurance assessment rate for the current fiscal year.

(c) The amount of the self-insurance assessment for each state agency shall be determined by multiplying the total payroll for each payroll period of such state agency by such agency’s self-insurance rate assessment for the fiscal year. For purposes of this section, total payroll shall not include any payments made by the state board of regents pursuant to the provisions of subsection (5) of Kan. Stat. Ann. § 74-4927a, and amendments thereto, to a member of the faculty or other person defined in subsection (1)(a) of Kan. Stat. Ann. § 74-4925, and amendments thereto.
