K&L Gates Triage: Payor-Provider Litigation 101

This is the first segment in a three-part series about the fundamentals of Payer-Provider Litigation. It explains that in-network providers are required to challenge reimbursement decisions under contract law and state law, while out-of-network providers are increasingly required to bring claims under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”). The webinar also describes the difference between “right to payment” claims and “rate of payment” claims, including which claims are generally preempted by ERISA.
