What it is and who needs it.
What the TPA bond actually covers
Maryland regulates third party administrators — firms that collect premiums, adjust claims, or otherwise handle money for insurance and benefit plans they do not underwrite — under the Insurance Article. A TPA must register with the Maryland Insurance Administration and file a surety bond before it handles plan funds.
The bond is a fidelity-style guarantee: it protects the insurers, plans, and people whose money the administrator holds against fraud or dishonest handling of those funds. It runs to the State for the benefit of the harmed parties — not to the TPA.
The amount scales with the money you administer. Maryland generally sets it at no less than 10% of the average amount of funds you hold at any one time, with a $5,000 floor and a cap the Commissioner can raise for large administrators. Confirm your figure with the Insurance Administration, enter it here, and pricing starts from $100 — your exact price appears at the application, with no credit fields to fill in.
