For the first financial year after 30 June 2004 in which a medical indemnity insurer provided medical indemnity cover for the practitioner under a contract of insurance, multiply: (a) the practitioner’s run‑off cover credit for the financial year; by (b) the interest rate adjustment for the financial year (see subsection (4)). Step 2. For each subsequent financial year (if any) until the financial year in which the termination date occurs, multiply: (a) the sum of the practitioner’s run‑off cover credit for the financial year and the amount worked out, under Step 1 or this Step, for the immediately preceding financial year; by (b) the interest rate adjustment for the financial year (see subsection (4)). Step 3. Add together: (a) the practitioner’s run‑off cover credit for the financial year in which the termination date occurs; and (b) the last of the amounts worked out under Step 1 or Step 2. The result is the practitioner’s total run‑off cover credit.
