As licensed providers, physicians work on a daily basis with Hospitals and Community Health Clinics to facilitate the delivery of healthcare services to patients. Physicians have been viewed for decades as the primary caregiver and advocate for their patients. MMA has intervened in this proceeding both as a representative of physicians and as a patient advocate. MMA is seeking an analysis of comparable information about other Anthem Blues to determine whether providers subject to Anthem's business plans and provider contracts will be better able, or less able, to provide services effectively and appropriately to patients. Please provide a description of all substantive management representations made to HLHZ and, to the extent not heretofore provided, copies of all documents reflecting such.
Physicians are the primary, and substantially only, persons licensed to diagnose and treat patients.
