An April 12 article in NJ Spotlight, "Judge Orders Horizon to Let Public See Details
Behind OMNIA Insurance Plan," discussed the Bergen County
Superior Court's order that Horizon Blue Cross Blue
Shield disclose a report from McKinsey & Co. that Horizon
used to determine the healthcare providers to be included in its
two-tiered OMNIA plan. Day Pitney's Mike Furey was quoted
in the article.
"With Judge [Robert] Contillo's decision, the public
should finally have an opportunity to learn the truth behind
OMNIA," Mike said. "If Horizon truly believes that
healthcare is an important issue to the public, then it should stop
its efforts to hide the documents that explain what happened and
comply with the Court's order directing their
release."
Day Pitney is representing three of the remaining plaintiff hospitals involved in this case: CentraState Medical Center in Freehold; Holy Name Medical Center in Teaneck; and Valley Hospital in Ridgewood. The case, Centrastate Medical Center Inc. et al v. Horizon Healthcare Services Inc., is pending in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Chancery Division.
