food for the conspiracy theory folks?!! Los Angeles' city attorney has sued Health Net Inc. - one of California's largest insurers - accusing the company of unlawful and deceptive business practices for canceling coverage after patients make medical claims. http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/02/22/BUIVV6HTF.DTL and then this lyger wrote:
http://www.weau.com/news/headlines/16061387.html NewsCenter 13 has learned local doctors may be at risk for identity theft. The risk involves a national health insurance company and more than 100-thousand doctors in Wisconsin and ten other states. The Vice President at Marshfield Clinic confirmed Wednesday afternoon that social security numbers for his doctors and thousands of others all over the midwest were posted on a website, accidently. Dr. Doug Reding tells us the numbers were posted to a website by a company called Health Net Federal Services based in Rancho Cordova, California.
