note
-
The HPO is in fact very close to a PHO, except that the hospital partner may exert more control over the arrangement. An MSO is an organization that leases facilities, equipment, etc. or provides management services to a physician entity. A PO is a physician organization that is fairly generic in nature and can pursue single or multiple activities, but is physician-owned and -operated.

See Warner v. Ford Motor Co., 46 F.3d 531, 535 (6th Cir. 1995). Typically medical malpractice cases filed against an ERISA-qualified plan are brought in state courts. Defendants generally seek to remove these actions to the federal courts arguing that a complete preemption of state law is mandated by ERISA's § 502, and that the federal district court has original subject matter jurisdiction. In order for a claim to be removable, the well-pleaded complaint rule must generally be satisfied. This rule requires that a federal question be presented on the face of the plaintiff's complaint. Clearly, a plaintiff who seeks a state remedy will not be apt to argue the presence of a federal question, and even the inclusion of anticipatory defenses to the defendant's likely preemption argument does not create a federal question. In Metropolitan Life Ins. Co. v. Taylor, 481 U.S. 58 (1986), the Supreme Court established an exception to the well-pleaded complaint rule, holding that state common law claims are to be treated as federal claims provided that the claim falls within the bounds of the civil enforcement actions outlined in §502 of ERISA. Id. at 64-65. It is clear from Metropolitan Life that a state claim cannot be automatically removed to federal court by a general argument that such claims are inherently federal in nature. Id.

Under ERISA, health plans have a fiduciary duty to act solely in the interests of the participants and beneficiaries. In a recently filed New York case, a plaintiff alleges that Aetna Health Plans violated its fiduciary duty by switching its physician contracts from FFS to capitation. The plaintiff alleges that her children's pediatrician refused to accept Aetna's capitated arrangement, and informed his patient of sixteen years that he would not be able to continue treating her children under the HMO plan. The plaintiff is asking a federal court to enjoin Aetna from interfering with physician contracts, and to drop the use of physician incentive arrangements. The suit is a novel one which faces an uphill battle, in that the change to capitation may inconvenience the beneficiary, but it is not a denial of coverage or an action that excludes the practitioner. Robert Kazel, Suit Questions Legality of Aetna's Capitation, BUS. INS., Jan. 15, 1996, at 37. There may be situations in which changes in reimbursement policy will result in large practitioner defections from a plan to an extent where such a policy shift could be characterized as a breach of fiduciary duty.

It is interesting to consider whether a property right argument could be mounted by a plan member physician if the MCO switches reimbursement from FFS to capitation, hurting the physician who is unable to adjust. Chances are, the MCO contract would allow for change in reimbursement, but in the event such change violated the practitioner agreement, the breach may be the basis of a property rights argument.

Under New Jersey law, hospitals are treated as quasi-public entities, thus allowing physicians who have been adversely affected by hospital credentialing decisions to bring due process type actions. In order for that right to be extended to the managed care arena, MCOs would have to be viewed by the courts as quasi-public in nature. Perhaps MCO entities which are licensed could be thought of as quasi-public, but those that are just financial conduits may not be.

note

Recently a group of five Houston physicians sued Aetna Life Insurance Company arguing that they were unfairly dropped from the insurer's PPO. The U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas ruled that it had no jurisdiction in the case because Texas law does not provide a private cause of action to enforce PPO regulations. According to the Fifth Circuit, only the Texas Department of Insurance has the authority to enforce PPO rules. Texas Medical Ass'n v. Aetna Life Ins. Co., 80 F.3d 153 (5th Cir. 1996).
