Welcome to the Conrad v. Perales Settlement Website
If You Are the Heir of Someone Who Received both Medicare and NY Medicaid and Resided in a Nursing Home in 1989
This Class Action Settlement May Affect Your Rights
|
- Judge Grants Final Approval to $11 Million Settlement. On December 28, 2006, Judge John T. Curtin of the United States District Court for the Western District of New York granted approval to the $11 million class action settlement.
- What is the lawsuit about? The lawsuit claims individuals who received services in a nursing home in 1989 may have been overcharged. Plaintiffs allege that the New York Medicaid program allowed nursing homes to bill both Medicare and Medicaid for the same services. This policy allowed nursing homes to collect the individual's Medicaid "co-payment" for services that were covered by their Medicare.
- Who is part of the Settlement Class? The Settlement Class consists of individuals who received payment from both Medicare and New York's Medicaid program toward their care in a skilled nursing facility during any month of 1989 ("Settlement Class Members"). The Settlement provides an $11 million fund to refund the heirs of patients who overpaid for Nursing Home Services.
