issued or administered a group health benefit plan within the previous twelve months
or is actively marketing or administering a group health benefit plan in this state shall
participate in the association.
2. The association may begin operation on either:

42 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.]; or
b. The January first following the date the commissioner certifies to the secretary of
state and the legislative council that the Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act [Pub. L. 111-148] has been repealed, amended, or finally adjudicated by a
court of law with jurisdiction over North Dakota as invalid or in a manner that
makes the granting of an innovation waiver unnecessary or inapplicable.
3. If the federal funding associated with an approved innovation waiver under section
1332 of the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act [Pub. L. 111-148; 119
Stat. 124; 42 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.] is terminated or otherwise discontinued, the

North Dakota beginning on the January first following the date the commissioner
notifies the board that federal funding has been terminated or otherwise discontinued.
