Omnia Lawsuit Judge Orders Horizon to Release McKinsey Report

Michael Furey was quoted in an article, “Omnia lawsuit judge orders Horizon to release McKinsey report,” published by NJBIZ. According to the article, earlier this week, Bergen County Superior Court Judge Robert Contillo ordered Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield to disclose a report from McKinsey & Co. used to determine the health care providers to be included in Horizon’s OMNIA plan. “With Judge Contillo’s decision, the public should finally have an opportunity to learn the truth behind OMNIA,” Furey told NJBIZ. “If Horizon truly believes that healthcare is an important issue to the public, then it should stop its efforts to hide the documents,” he continued.

Furey and Dennis LaFiura are representing three of the remaining plaintiff hospitals involved in this case: CentraState Medical Center in Freehold; Holy Name Medical Center in Teaneck; and Valley Hospital in Ridgewood. The case, Centrastate Medical Center Inc. et al v. Horizon Healthcare Services Inc. is pending in the Superior Court of New Jersey, Chancery Division.
