    Government Action: BBB reports on known government actions involving business’ marketplace conduct:
    Minnesota Dept. of Commerce Consent Order

    On May, 2, 2024, the business entered into a Consent Order with the Minnesota Department of Commerce. The Consent Order settles allegations that the business did "not demonstrate comparability in reimbursement rates between medical/surgical (M/S) providers and mental health and substance abuse disorder (MH/SUD) providers for certain identified Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) billing codes, in violation of Minn. Stat. § 62Q.47(d) and (e) (2022)." And "Did not maintain accurate and complete provider directories, in violation of Minn. Stat. §§ 62K.075 and 72A.20, subd. 2(2022)." And "Engaged in utilization review practices and procedures that violated Minn. Stat. §§ 62M.05, 62M.09, and 62Q.47(d) and (e) (2022) by not: Documenting the number of requested and denied days or units, Properly documenting utilization review-related data, and Advising insureds and enrollees of their appeal rights for denied days or units." In addition, the allegation states the business "Did not timely post and posted inaccurate MH/SUD prior authorization statistics on its public website, in violation on Minn. Stat. §§ 62M.18 and 72A.20, subd. 2 (2022)." And "Applied formulary design restrictions more stringently for certain MH/SUD prescription drugs than for M/S prescription drugs, in violation of Minn. Stat. § 62Q.47(d) and (e) (2022) and Submitted comparative analyses lacking sufficient information for the Department (of Commerce) to determine whether the analyses met the requirements of Minn. Stat. §62Q.47(d), (e), and (f) (2022). See also 42 U.S.C. § 300gg-26(a)(8)(A)" and "Did not provide adequate explanations of benefits to insureds and enrollees, in violation of Minn. Stat §§ 72A.20, subd. 12(14) and 72A.201, subd. 5(6) (2022)".

    Under terms of the Consent Order, the business agreed to comply with the corrective action plan as monitored by the Minnesota Department of Commerce; comply with the licensure and staff criteria of Minn. Stat. 62M.09 (2022) and to pay $300,000.00 of a $450,000.00 penalty, with the balance stayed on the condition that the action plan is completed. The Consent Order was for settlement purposes only and should not be considered as an admission of guilt or finding of violation of the law. For more details go to the below link.

    Alert

    In September 2024, BBB began receiving a large number of calls asking about a notification letter from Change Healthcare, describing a data breach incident and offering free credit monitoring services. Many callers did not recognize the name 'Change Healthcare,' and suspected the letter itself of being a scam. But the letter *is* legitimate, and describes a data breach incident that took place in February 2024. Change Healthcare is a unit of UnitedHealth, and provides data services to thousands of healthcare providers, pharmacies, and insurers. Consumers concerned their data may have been impacted can safely enroll in credit monitoring through IDX As described in the notification letter, if they wish to do so.
