Medicare Secondary Payer Act Litigation Against Insurers On The Rise
A law firm that has filed approximately 200 class actions against insurers (including at least 60 in the past month) has indicated that it is readying another 1,500 cases for filing on behalf of $70 billion in claim holders. Workers compensation, auto and liability insurers should take notice of developments in these lawsuits seeking reimbursement for payments made by Medicare Advantage Organizations (MAOs) for the benefit of Medicare beneficiaries.
