(a) (1) Any insurance company authorized to do business in this state and examined under the law shall pay the proper charges incurred in the examination, including the expenses of the commissioner or the commissioner's deputy, and the expenses and compensation of the commissioner's assistants employed in the examination. (2) The compensation of the experts, actuaries and examiners designated by the commissioner for examining the books or business of insurance companies doing business in this state shall be fixed by the commissioner at a reasonable amount commensurate with usual compensation for like services. (b) All persons engaging, assisting, or making the required examination under this chapter shall be regular state employees, and their entire expenses and compensation shall be paid only by the state as now provided for by law. Notwithstanding this subsection (b), the commissioner may contract, in accordance with applicable state contracting procedures, for qualified actuaries and financial examiners the commissioner deems necessary due to the unavailability of qualified regular state employees to conduct a particular examination; provided, that, with respect to financial examinations, the compensation and per diem allowances paid to the persons shall be fixed by the commissioner at a reasonable amount commensurate with usual compensation for like services. (c) The full cost of the examination fixed by the commissioner shall be paid into the department for its use and benefit in meeting the expenses and compensation for the persons engaged in the examinations.
