[Question Number] 7 [Answer] Private foreign insurers and foreign self funded plans have the same election decision to make as domestic insurers and self funded plans. If they elect into the Public Goods Pool, their surcharge obligation is the same as the Self-Pay/Unspecified percentage rate, payable directly to the Public Goods Pool, plus, if applicable, a covered lives assessment per diem. If they don't elect, they will be obligated to the higher surcharge percentage, and if applicable, a regional GME percentage on inpatient hospital services, when billed. [Question] 
How do the HCRA surcharges and covered lives assessments/GME apply to private foreign insurers or foreign self funded plans?
