School District Health Plan Wins Summary Judgment

In American Marine Center v. The Lake & Peninsula School District, et al., JDO attorneys Matt Singer and Callie Patton recently obtained a defense judgment for their clients.  An Anchorage hyperbaric center sued JDO's client, a small school district health plan, claiming that it was obligated to pay several hundred thousand dollars for an experimental and unrecognized medical treatment.  The hyperbaric center claimed that an oral contract was formed when it called to verify that a patient was eligible for health benefits under the plan.  The superior court agreed that there was no oral contract formed by this short telephone call, and it entered judgment in favor of the defendants.
