A Plan Document a Day Keeps the Physician Lawsuits Away
Haynes Boone Link to more items from this source
Sept. 3, 2025

"The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit ... made the following points: [1] When assignment forms are broadly drafted, they may be ambiguous as to who the assignee is, but that does not invalidate the assignments. [2] There is not a requirement that an assignment form include a standalone 'right to sue' provision when the form assigns 'all rights' or 'all insurance benefits.' [3] An ERISA plan administrator may be prevented from enforcing plan provisions ... against a claimant if the administrator refuses to provide the document containing those provisions to the claimant." [Angelina Emergency Med. Assoc. v. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Ala., No. 24-10306 (5th Cir. Aug. 8, 2025)]  MORE >>
