7.08.2010 File by October 5---requesting physicians already receiving reports for $350 million settlement
As a part of its recent UCR Settlement, UnitedHealth Group has agreed to make a settlement payment of $350 million, which will be distributed to physicians and patients whose payments for out-of-network services were based on skewed data from the insurer's UCR database. Physicians who have requested reports of the Covered Out-of-Network Services and Supplies they provided from Jan. 1, 2002 to May 28, 2010 have begun receiving these reports from the Settlement Claims Administrator. Find out how to request your report by accessing the AMA's step-by-step guide to help maximize your recovery from the settlement. This guide is part of a comprehensive FAQ list. Visit www.ama-assn.org/go/ucrsettlement today to access these resources. Claim forms need to be completed and submitted by October 5, 2010. Don't miss this opportunity to collect your share of the $350 million. |
