(a) In all proceedings and judicial reviews under § 56-9-201 , all records of the insurer, other documents, and all insurance department files and court records and papers, so far as they pertain to, or are a part of, the record of the proceedings, shall be and remain confidential except as is necessary to obtain compliance therewith, unless and until the chancery court of Davidson County, after hearing arguments from the parties in chambers, shall order otherwise, or unless the insurer requests that the matter be made public. Until the court order, all papers filed with the clerk of the chancery court of Davidson County shall be held by the clerk in a confidential file. (b) Subsection (a) shall not be applicable in any proceeding where the insurer on the date of the filing of the proceeding had derived fifty-one percent (51%) or more of its revenue for the past twelve (12) months from a contract or contracts with a governmental entity to provide health care services to enrollees in a publicly funded medical assistance program pursuant to title 71. In these cases, the records of the insurer, other documents, and all insurance department files and court records and papers, so far as they pertain to, or are a part of, the record of the proceeding and that reflect the financial solvency of the insurer, shall be open to public inspection under the Tennessee Public Records Act, compiled in title 10, chapter 7, unless otherwise required to be maintained as confidential under federal or state law. An insurer within fifteen (15) days from the date of seizure may apply to the court for a stay of application of this subsection (b), or for a protective order for particularized information that is proprietary in nature, the disclosure of which would be injurious to the rehabilitation of the insurer. This subsection (b) shall be stayed from the date of seizure until a court of competent jurisdiction rules on the application for a stay or a protective order.
