JUSTICE O’BRIEN, specially concurring: “What a tangled web we weave...” This case could have been resolved with a phone call between the attorneys. The attorney for Blue Cross-Blue Shield said at oral arguments they would have paid the sums if the notice had been properly entitled; the Withholding Act provides that either party could have petitioned the court to do that. A phone call and agreed order could have solved this problem. Instead, countless hours and dollars were spent on this case. Very disheartening. I concur on the law and the result and am disheartened at the use of the courts in this manner.
