Phoenix Children’s back in network of largest health insurer

After a hot contract dispute last year, Phoenix returned to children, Ballar Cross and Blue Shield Arizona, or AZ Blue, again.

The two were negotiating nearly 2024 a contract to provide health insurance coverage for patients in the health system for children throughout Arizona, but they failed to meet an appointment on October 30.

At that time, they did not neglect the words.

Phoenix children claimed that the health insurance company rejected more than 10 % of the claims it made, which led to annual discounts of $ 21 million.

At that time, AZ Blue’s executive officials said they were confused because the child health system has refused an increase of $ 80 million, but Phoenix Children’s said that the offer was closer to $ 43 million when calculating several factors, including illegal denial.
