If the commissioner finds that a rate filing does not meet the requirements of this chapter, the commissioner shall disapprove the rate filing pursuant to section 26.1-30-21. 2. If at any time subsequent to the applicable waiting period or extension thereof the commissioner finds that a rate filing does not meet the requirements of this chapter, the commissioner shall issue, pursuant to section 26.1-30-21, an order to that effect after a hearing. Copies of the order must be sent to the corporation. 3. Any person or organization aggrieved with respect to any filing which is in effect, except the health service corporation which made the filing, may make written application to the commissioner for a hearing thereon. The application must specify the grounds relied upon by the applicant. If the commissioner finds that the application is made in good faith, that the applicant would be so aggrieved if the applicant's grounds were established, and that the grounds otherwise justify holding a hearing, the commissioner shall hold, within thirty days after receipt of the application, a hearing upon not less than ten days' written notice to the applicant and to each corporation which made the filing. If after a hearing the commissioner finds that the filing does not meet the requirements of this chapter, the commissioner shall issue an order pursuant to section 26.1-30-21.
