ABQ providers will only be able to treat patients who see one of the practice’s physicians, according to the report. Prior to Lovelace’s decision, the healthcare providers could treat any patient who was in a Lovelace hospital.
This announcement follows a lawsuit Lovelace filed against ABQ in October, claiming the physician group attempted to steer Lovelace members to other health insurers. The contract between Lovelace and ABQ HP expired Nov. 8.
