Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 12.02.16
In Maine Community Health Options v. U.S. (Dec. 2, 2016) the CFC held that the “existence of separate, active cases” whose outcomes will impact the issues raised by a plaintiff fails to meet the Government’s burden to justify a stay of litigation under Federal Circuit precedent. Plaintiff Maine Community Health Options (represented by C&M) is one of 13 health insurers who have filed suit against the Government under the Tucker Act seeking to recover “risk corridors” payments pursuant to §1342 of the Affordable Care Act.

NAIC Intensifies AI Regulatory Focus: What Health Insurance Payors Need to Know
The National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) is intensifying its oversight of how insurers use AI — and the pace of regulatory activity shows no signs of slowing. Over the past several months, the NAIC has published a formal Issue Brief staking out its position on federal AI legislation, launched a multistate AI Evaluation Tool pilot aimed at examining insurers’ AI governance programs, and continued to expand adoption of its AI Model Bulletin across state lines.

That Model Bulletin has now been adopted in approximately 24 states.
