Lawsuit Filed Against Insurer for Rate Hikes
A California consumer group filed a lawsuit against health insurer Anthem Blue Cross, claiming the company is forcing customers into policies with less coverage and higher deductibles. One woman claims in the suit that Blue Cross offered her a new policy with minimal coverage and high deductibles, and when the offer expired, they raised the rates on her current policy. The lawsuit claims that Anthem is forcing older, sicker members to accept inferior coverage at higher prices or is dropping them all together. Victoria Colliver, San Francisco Chronicle 03/02/2010
