It is the intent of the Legislature in enacting this article to allow a self-funded or partially self-funded multiple employer welfare arrangement to meet the requirements for a certificate of compliance to do business in California. If the self-funded or partially self-funded multiple employer welfare arrangement obtains and maintains a certificate of compliance under these sections, it shall not be considered an unauthorized insurer.
