The American Medical Association (AMA) today launched a new online resource that will help thousands of physicians file claims in the record-breaking settlement reached in the AMA legal victory against UnitedHealth Group—the nation’s largest health insurer. More than $350 million is available to compensate physicians and their patients for 15 years of artificially low payments for out-of-network services.
The UnitedHealth settlement is governed by a series of court-imposed deadlines that physicians must follow. The current settlement deadlines include the following key dates:
July 27 – Deadline for filing objections to the settlement or for opting out of the settlement.
September 13 – Date for the final settlement hearing to consider any filed objections.
October 5 – Deadline for filing a claim to share in the settlement fund.
