Wolf Popper LLP Brings Class Action on Behalf of Patients Who Received Surprise Emergency Room Physician Bills from EmCare Related Physician Groups after Going to an In-Network Hospital in California


Wolf Popper filed a class action on behalf of patients who went to an in-network emergency department in California and were charged inflated rates for out-of-network physician services by a company called EmCare, owned by Envision Healthcare. The complaint alleges that EmCare failed to disclose information that would allow patients to avoid—or even know that they were receiving—out-of-network care at an in-network hospital, and then overcharged patients for out-of-network physician services, billing at rates far beyond the fair market value of the services.
