MultiPlan Anti-Trust Lawsuit Enters Active Discovery

The Arizona Medical Association is a plaintiff in the In re MultiPlan Health Insurance Provider Litigation, a federal antitrust case alleging that MultiPlan and major health insurers colluded to suppress out-of-network reimbursement rates paid to physicians and other providers.

The case is now in active discovery. At the February 27 case management conference, the Court cleared the way for depositions of MultiPlan representatives and required the company to produce key internal records. The next status conference was on April 9, and an update from that meeting is forthcoming.

On a related note, co-lead counsel Matt Lavin has joined Gilbert LLC and will continue leading the case in his new role. This change does not affect the case, our organization's participation in any way, or your case if you have joined the litigation.

Members of the Arizona Medical Association interested in joining the lawsuit as litigants are eligible for discounted contingency fees. If you believe you've been impacted by MultiPlan's practices, you are encouraged to reach out to an attorney.
