(Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2027)

Sec. 511.109. Examination.

(a) The Director or his designee may examine any applicant for or holder of an administrator's license.

(b) Any administrator being examined shall provide to the Director or his designee convenient and free access, at all reasonable hours at their offices, to all books, records, documents and other papers relating to such administrator's business affairs.

(c) The Director or his designee may administer oaths and thereafter examine any individual about the business of the administrator.

(d) The examiners designated by the Director pursuant to this Section may make reports to the Director. Any report alleging substantive violations of this Article, any applicable provisions of the Illinois Insurance Code, or any applicable Part of Title 50 of the Illinois Administrative Code shall be in writing and be based upon facts obtained by the examiners. The report shall be verified by the examiners.

(e) If a report is made, the Director shall either deliver a duplicate thereof to the administrator being examined or send such duplicate by certified or registered mail to the administrator's address specified in the records of the Department. The Director shall afford the administrator an opportunity to request a hearing to object to the report. The administrator may request a hearing within 30 days after receipt of the duplicate of the examination report by giving the Director written notice of such request together with written objections to the report. Any hearing shall be conducted in accordance with Sections 402 and 403 of this Code. The right to hearing is waived if the delivery of the report is refused or the report is otherwise undeliverable or the administrator does not timely request a hearing. After the hearing or upon expiration of the time period during which an administrator may request a hearing, if the examination reveals that the administrator is operating in violation of any applicable provision of the Illinois Insurance Code, any applicable Part of Title 50 of the Illinois Administrative Code or prior order, the Director, in the written order, may require the administrator to take any action the Director considers necessary or appropriate in accordance with the report or examination hearing. If the Director issues an order, it shall be issued within 90 days after the report is filed, or if there is a hearing, within 90 days after the conclusion of the hearing. The order is subject to review under the Administrative Review Law.
