CHARLESTON, W.Va. A West Virginia health care organization has filed a lawsuit against state agencies and a managed care organization regarding reimbursement for drug tests.
According to a petition filed this week in Kanawha Circuit Court, Ohio Valley Physicians learned in January that UniCare Health Plan of West Virginia would be ceasing payments for drug tests performed in physician office labs. Oho Valley Physicians, which has its principal base of business in Kanawha County, alleges such action has caused multi-day delays in obtaining screening results.
