KENTUCKY ASSN. OF HEALTH PLANS, INC. v. MILLER

Opinion of the Court

it must satisfy two requirements. First, the state law must be specifically directed toward entities engaged in insurance. See Pilot Life, supra, at 50, UNUM, supra, at 368; Rush Prudential, supra, at 366. Second, as explained above, the state law must substantially affect the risk pooling arrangement between the insurer and the insured. Kentucky's law satisfies each of these requirements.

* * *

For these reasons, we affirm the judgment of the Sixth Circuit.

It is so ordered.
