CareFirst IVF Embryo-Thawing Coverage Class Action
CareFirst BlueChoice · Health insurance coverage for in-vitro fertilization and embryo thawing · Ongoing Litigation
About this case
The Skippers brought a putative class action alleging that CareFirst improperly denied coverage for embryo thawing associated with an in-vitro fertilization procedure under a Maryland health insurance policy. The Maryland Supreme Court held that reimbursement to the named plaintiffs did not moot the putative class action before they had a reasonable opportunity to seek class certification and held that the complaint stated a claim; the litigation remains ongoing.
