Proving you can handle claims as a self-insurer
Read the official text at capitol.hawaii.gov ↗This section says that to become self-insured, you must prove to the insurance commissioner that you have a licensed adjuster to handle and pay claims quickly. While self-insured, you must send all claims to that adjuster right away. The commissioner can ask you to show you still have this service.
