Benefitslink points us to this article by John Carroll for Managed Care Magazine at ManagedCareMag.com: “AWP Reimbursement Ruling May Be More Than Meets [the] Eye.” The article discusses how managed care will be affected by the U.S. Supreme Court case of Kentucky Association of Health Plans v. Miller (discussed here) which held that a state’s “any willing provider law” was not preempted by ERISA. The article cites predictions that the fallout of this ruling will be, for states that have “any willing provider” laws, different levels of co-pay and different levels of care that patients can choose from (since HMO’s can no longer restrict which providers will be part of the network) as well as different levels of pay to providers based on performance.
