Doss Firm Investigates Potential Lawsuits Against Anthem/Blue Cross

Marietta Law Firm Offers Services to victims of deceptive business practices by Anthem/Blue Cross.

January 22, 2019 -- Atlanta, Georgia -- With the recent announcement that Anthem health insurance will no longer cover the Wellstar health care network after February 4, 2019, Doss Firm LLC’s class action litigation attorneys are investigating on behalf of Anthem customers in Georgia.

The dispute between Anthem, formerly called Blue Cross Blue Shield of Georgia, and Wellstar, the largest health care network in Georgia, means policyholders will no longer be in plan if they choose a Wellstar facility or medical professional after February 4, 2019.

In addition to paying their health insurance premiums, Anthem’s customers will pay exorbitant out-of-network costs if they stay with Wellstar medical professionals, or they’ll need to choose services from medical professionals in a different health care network.

During the most recent open-enrollment period, Anthem accepted new patients and stated that it would accept Wellstar as an available provider. Because Anthem and Wellstar failed to notify customers in northwest metro Atlanta of this change before enrollment was closed, thousands of new customers will be contractually obligated to pay for services they didn’t agree to.

“We rely solely on Wellstar hospitals and doctors to care for our family,” said Joy Doss, a Marietta attorney at Doss Firm. “In fact, my children go to the same pediatric practice, Wellstar Kenmar Pediatrics, that I went to from birth over 40 years ago. We love Wellstar, and the sad fact is it really is the best and obviously the only choice in this area. We absolutely would not have switched to Anthem had we known that they were going to reverse course again and pull the rug out from underneath us. If we are locked in for a year, Anthem should be locked in as well.”

“Anthem’s misconduct could give rise to class action lawsuits for, among other things, deceptive business practices,” said Jason Doss, another attorney of Doss Firm. “If you recently enrolled with Anthem during the last open enrollment period, we want to hear from you.”
