Frier Levitt Successfully Appeals Payor’s Termination of Physician

Article

Frier Levitt recently represented a physician facing termination as a participating provider with a major commercial payor due to a medical malpractice settlement that was deemed to indicate a quality of care issue. With the payor’s members comprising the majority of the physician’s patient population, a termination of his provider contract would have devastated his practice and the community he serves.

Frier Levitt assisted the physician in appealing the termination and as a result, the credentialing committee reversed its decision and restored the physician’s status as a participating provider.
