Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler of the Northern District of California on Tuesday partially granted summary judgment to medical care provider Sutter Health, the defendant in a class-action that began in 2012. The suit claimed that Sutter has engaged in anticompetitive practices through contracts with health plans that allegedly unfairly raise prices for those insured.
The named plaintiffs, including four individuals insured under health plans in network with Sutter hospitals and two companies that paid for health insurance for employees, originally alleged in their complaint that Sutter violated the Sherman Antitrust Act, California’s Cartwright Act, and California’s Unfair Competition Law through controlling certain Northern California inpatient services markets.
