(1) Suspension of a certificate of authority shall be for such period, not to exceed 1 year, as is fixed by the office in the order of suspension, unless the office shortens or rescinds such suspension or the order of suspension is modified, rescinded, or reversed.
(2) During the period of suspension, the provider shall file its annual statement and pay license fees and taxes as required under this chapter as if the certificate had continued in full force; but the provider shall issue no new contracts.
(3) Upon expiration of the suspension period, if within such period the certificate of authority has not otherwise terminated, the provider’s certificate of authority shall automatically be reinstated unless the office finds that the causes for the suspension have not been removed or that the provider is otherwise not in compliance with the requirements of this chapter. If not so automatically reinstated, the certificate of authority shall be deemed to be revoked as of the end of the suspension period or upon failure of the provider to continue the certificate during the suspension period, whichever event first occurs.
