Any association, organized in accordance with this article, may offer, issue and administer a policy, or policies, designed to specifically meet the requirements of any federal or state program for provision of health care to segments of the population over 65 years of age. In any case where such a federal or state program is designed to also meet the health care needs of segments of the population under age 65, including, but without limitation, the health care needs of families with dependent children, the blind, the disabled, and the otherwise medically indigent, insurance under such policy or policies may be made available to beneficiaries of such program under age 65. Such an association may also perform administrative services in connection with any such program under contract with the federal government, the state, any agency of either, or any other entity.
