What it is and who needs it.
What the TPA bond actually covers
Idaho licenses third party administrators — firms that collect premiums or contributions and pay claims for insurers and self-funded plans — through the Department of Insurance under Idaho Code Title 41, Chapter 9. The Department can require a surety bond as a condition of licensure.
The bond is a financial-responsibility guarantee running to the benefit of the people whose money you handle. If an administrator misapplies or fails to account for funds collected on behalf of insurers, plans, or covered persons, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
The amount is tied to the funds you handle, not a single fixed number. Published guidance describes figures such as $20,000 (or 10% of funds handled, whichever is greater) for administrators of non-self-funded business, and a larger bond for administrators of self-funded health plans. Confirm your required figure with the Department, and your exact price appears at the application, starting from $100.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A court bond answers to the court and the party its order protects: if the judgment or order the bond secures is not satisfied, that party can claim against it, up to the penal sum the court set.
The surety pays a valid claim after the court rules, and you repay the surety. A court bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the Department of Insurance. Submit the executed bond with your TPA license application or renewal. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the Department insists on them.
What sets the price
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $50,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
