(2) any amount payable by or on behalf of a self-insurer.
However, the term does not include coverage under a life insurance
policy.
(b) Any person having a claim against an insurer shall, in
accordance with subsection (c), be required first to exhaust all coverage
provided by any other insurance policy, including the right to a defense

policy arises from the same facts, injury, or loss that gave rise to the
covered claim against the association under this chapter.
(c) The requirement to exhaust coverage provided by any other
insurance policy under subsection (b):
(1) applies regardless of whether the other insurance policy is
written by a member insurer; and
(2) does not apply to a right under a:
(A) policy written by an insolvent insurer; or
