Fee schedule vendor properly substituted for a claims rep. affidavit

If you were injured due to someone else’s careless actions, we understand the challenges you may be facing. As a victim or a surviving family member, you could be dealing with the life-altering consequences of a serious accident.

Healing Art Acupuncture, P.C. v Amica Mut. Ins. Co., 2015 NY Slip Op 50078(U)(App. Term 2d Dept. 2015)

“Defendant denied plaintiff’s claims on the grounds that they exceeded the amount permitted by the workers’ compensation fee schedule, and that defendant had fully paid for the billed-for services in accordance with the fee schedule for acupuncture services performed by chiropractors. Contrary to plaintiff’s assertion, the affidavit executed by a fee schedule adjuster [*2]for defendant’s vendor, Managed Care Network, established that defendant had properly used the workers’ compensation fee schedule for acupuncture services performed by chiropractors to determine the amount which plaintiff was entitled to receive for the services at issue”

So here, you have a vendor’s affidavit establishing the merits of the fee schedule defense.  Generally, this type of issue can be handled through claims representative affidavit.
