Federal Hearings and Department of Justice Investigation into Multiplan
Federal Hearings and Department of Justice Investigation into Multiplan
The Basics & What's Next
Recent revelations about MultiPlan have raised concerns about potential price-fixing in healthcare and have prompted calls for a federal investigation. MultiPlan's algorithms recommend payment amounts for out-of-network medical claims, often driving down payments to providers. This allows insurers to collect higher fees.
Senator Amy Klobuchar has asked federal regulators to examine whether MultiPlan's algorithms have enabled major health insurers to conspire to reduce payments to doctors, resulting in higher bills for patients.
In addition to Gina de Peralta Thorne, Executive Director of Treatment Professionals in Alumni Services (TPAS), who will speak on our next Masterminds Discussion, Matt Lavin will join us in the latter half of the meeting to discuss the essential information regarding the federal hearing on Multiplan.
