Insurance Comm. Chaney looks to resolve insurer pay dispute

Insurance Commissioner speaks on NMHS-United Health dispute

The Mississippi Insurance Department is looking for progress in efforts to resolve a dispute between North Mississippi Health Services and United Health Care.

Both NMHS and United Healthcare have complied with a request from Insurance Commissioner Mike Chaney for detailed reports on how they are working to resolve charges that the insurer failed to pay the hospital system accurately and fairly.

“We should be in a position to address whether significant progress has been made in resolving the dispute by the middle of next week,” Chaney said.
