EmblemHealth to pay $2.5M, fix false provider listings, and improve care access after NY probe.
EmblemHealth will pay $2.5 million in penalties and implement major reforms after a New York investigation found over 80% of its listed behavioral health providers were inaccurate or unreachable.
The insurer must correct listings within two business days, verify data every 90 days, track complaints, and conduct secret shopper surveys.
It will also establish a restitution process for members who paid out-of-pocket and ensure timely access to care, including 24-hour urgent appointments and 10-day initial visit windows, with out-of-network care covered at in-network rates if needed.
The settlement avoids litigation and is part of a broader state effort to fix misleading provider directories.
