Payment must be accompanied by a statement in writing that the payment is made under protest and set forth a brief statement of the grounds for the protest.
(b) Not more than sixty (60) days after the payment of an assessment under protest by a member insurer, the association shall notify the member insurer in writing of the association's determination with respect to the protest (unless the association notifies the member insurer that additional time is required to resolve the issues raised by the protest).
(c) Not more than sixty (60) days after receipt of notice of the association's determination with respect to a protest, the protesting member insurer may appeal the determination to the commissioner.

(e) If a protest of an assessment is upheld, the amount paid by the protesting member insurer in error or excess must be returned to the member insurer. Interest on a refund due to a protesting member insurer must be paid at the rate actually earned by the association.
