"Net worth" means the excess of total admitted assets over total liabilities, but the liabilities shall not include fully subordinated debt.
"Operating expenses" means claims adjustment, administrative, soliciting, and reinsurance allowances.
"Society" means mutual benefit society.
"Uncovered expenditures" means the costs to the mutual benefit society for health care services that are the obligation of the mutual benefit society, for which a member may be liable in the event of the mutual benefit society's insolvency, and for which no alternative arrangements have been made that are acceptable to the commissioner.
