7 hours ago On Saturday, Judge Matthew Kennelly of the Northern District of Illinois hollowed out a complaint by a group of dental care providers against Massachusetts Bay Insurance Co. (MBIC), dismissing claims of breach of contract and bad faith related to the insurer’s alleged failure to reimburse costs incurred from COVID-19 shutdowns.
Fourteen affiliated dental practices from different parts of the country, led by Dental Experts LLC, banded together to file suit against MBIC to recover reimbursements to which they believe they are entitled. The plaintiffs alleged that the insurer contravened its responsibilities in its denial of claims by the plaintiffs after they lost revenue because of the March 2020 suspension of nonessential operations, including elective health care provisions such as dental work.
