In this episode, Gary Qualls discusses a recent development in payor litigation which implicates a number of recurring issues often raised in Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) cases. Specifically, a federal district court recently upheld a Louisiana assignment statute over an anti-assignment provision in a provider’s health plan contract and payor’s challenge of preemption.
