“I do think [the $500 million jury award against UnitedHealth Group for allegedly not monitoring the quality of care of its physician networks] sends a signal to health plans to have some responsibility about who they accept into their network. This case … could be part of a new wave of litigation against health plans to make sure they are living up to their responsibilities. After all, they do market health plans as providing quality medical care, making a promise to subscribers and members.”
— William Shernoff, attorney with the California law firm of Shernoff Bidart & Darras, told AIS’s Health Plan Week.
