The Law Court of Sullivan County gave final approval to the settlement on August 17, 2021. |
|
Cigna damages were based on the reduction in reimbursement rates that Cigna reported, on a confidential basis through discovery
in this case, that it achieved through physician recontracting at the end of 2013. If you did not participate in the Cigna contract
through HPI in 2013, or Cigna did not report that it entered into a new contract with your practice group directly in 2014, you are not
eligible for damages in this category. |
|
Direct damages owed to each practice group in the Class based on practice groups’ participation in direct-employer contracts and the
revenue derived from that participation. Counsel has allocated damages to your practice based on your participation in those contracts
and the proportion of revenue received by you from those contracts, relative to overall participation and revenue by HPI practice groups. |
|
Damages for breach of the Network Access Agreement were calculated by using historical claims data and estimating the effect that depressed
reimbursement rates would have had on revenue received from the Network Access Agreement in 2013 and 2014. |

The above methodologies are explained in more detail in the Distribution Plan filed with the Court by HPI on July 13, 2021. |
