Whenever an insurer utilizes the services of an administrator under the terms of a written contract as required in Section 59A-12A-4 NMSA 1978, the payment to the administrator of any premiums or charges for insurance by or on behalf of the insured shall be deemed to have been received by the insurer, and the payment of return premiums or claims by the insurer to the administrator shall not be deemed payment to the insured or claimant until such payments are received by the insured or claimant. Nothing in this section limits any right of the insurer against the administrator resulting from its failure to make payments to the insurer, insured or claimants.
