The Commission may suspend or revoke any license issued to a health carrier if it finds that any of the following conditions exist:
1. The State Health Commissioner certifies to the Commission pursuant to § 32.1-137.5 that the health carrier or its MCHIP is unable to fulfill its obligations to furnish quality health care services as set forth in Article 1.1 (§ 32.1-137.1 et seq.) of Chapter 5 of Title 32.1. The suspension of a certificate of quality assurance shall not be deemed such a certification by the State Health Commissioner.
2. The State Health Commissioner notifies the Commission that the health carrier has failed to implement the complaint system required by Title 32.1 and § 38.2-5804 to resolve valid complaints reasonably.
3. The Commission determines that a certificate of quality assurance issued to the health carrier has been revoked by the State Health Commissioner, or a request for renewal of such certificate has been denied or disapproved by the State Health Commissioner.
