Association of New Jersey Chiropractors v. Aetna, Inc. (D.N.J.).
On behalf of a nationwide class of healthcare providers and several well-established chiropractic associations, this action challenges Aetna's abusive practices in using post-payment audits and false allegations of fraud to pressure providers to repay substantial sums that were previously paid for providing healthcare services to Aetna subscribers. This practice is called "Recoupment" and is the most recent scheme by a number of insurers, including Aetna. Pomerantz is also prosecuting similar actions against BCBS and UnitedHealthcare.
