Aetna Health Inc. et al. v. Radiology Partners, Inc. et al.

Why this Matters:

A private insurer alleges that a large private equity-backed radiology practice group is violating Florida corporate practice of medicine laws and fraudulently billing for radiology services to increase revenue. The health insurance company also alleges that the radiology company is abusing the No Surprises Act arbitration process to receive higher out-of-network payments. 

Potential Impact:

Improper billing practices by private-equity backed providers and actions that flout the intent of the No Surprises Act could lead to higher costs and lower-quality care for patients.
