(May 2022) – There is ongoing litigation against Blue Cross Blue Shield for Provider Plaintiffs (which includes health systems, hospitals, surgery centers and other health care providers) alleging the various Blue Cross Blue Shield entities across the United States and Puerto Rico reached an explicit agreement to divide the United States into "service areas" and then allocate those markets amongst themselves, free of internal competition.
Further, the Provider Plaintiffs challenge the agreements reached by the Blues to fix prices for services rendered by health care providers through the Blue Card Program. While the provider litigation is still ongoing, it is a potential future settlement that hospitals and other providers who contract with BCBS should be aware of as this case may present a substantial (billions of dollars) recovery opportunity.
