15          Between lines 985 and 986, insert:
16          (3)
17          (d) Any change in rates charged for the contract must be
18    filed with the department not less than 30 days in advance of
19    the effective date. At the expiration of such 30 days, the rate
20    filing shall be deemed approved unless prior to such time the
21    filing has been affirmatively approved or disapproved by order
22    of the department. The approval of the filing by the department
23    constitutes a waiver of any unexpired portion of such waiting
24    period. The department may extend by not more than an additional
25    15 days the period within which it may so affirmatively approve
26    or disapprove any such filing, by giving notice of such
27    extension before expiration of the initial 30-day period. At the
28    expiration of any such period as so extended, and in the absence
29    of such prior affirmative approval or disapproval, any such
30    filing shall be deemed approved. This paragraph does not apply
31    to group health maintenance organization contracts effectuated
32    and delivered in this state insuring groups of 51 or more
33    persons.
