Letter Sent to Premera Asserting Inadequate Notification of Certain New Fees
Hall Render, outside legal counsel, sent a letter to Premera asserting that Premera must provide its enrolled providers with 75 days’ notice before enacting any changes in scheduled fees.
The letter states that:
- Premera provided only a sample of fee cuts and that it intends to implement additional fee cuts effective on July 1 without having provided specific notice of those cuts.
- If Premera wishes to implement fee cuts beyond those specifically disclosed on April 2, it must do so pursuant to the terms of the Contract. Failure to do so will be a breach of the Contract terms.
