Ed Kemper Explains AlohaCare's Lawsuit Against the State Print E-mail
Written by Sunrise on KGMB9 - sunrise@kgmb9.com

The state gave a billion-dollar Medicaid contract to two mainland companies that are under investigation for bad billing. Ed Kemper is here to explain why Aloha Care is suing over this.

AlohaCare has filed a lawsuit in federal district court. They claim that the two companies awarded the contract don't have a provider network in the state, violate Medicaid law by having an illegal tax rebate, are not properly licensed under the state's insurance law, and that the 19-year old and under group cannot be forced to join an HMO coverage group such as these companies.
