John Pelliccia, M.D. v. Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc.
49A02-1705-PL-1080
Civil plenary. Reverses the grant of summary judgment in favor of Anthem Insurance Companies, Inc. Finds the language of Anthem’s policy clearly provides the effective date of the termination of Dr. John Pelliccia’s health insurance coverage for nonpayment of one premium was Jan. 3, 2015. Also finds Anthem was required to abide by its policy with respect to covered medical expenses Pelliccia incurred before Jan. 3, 2015. Finally, finds Pelliccia’s bad faith claim against Anthem remains pending. Remands for Pelliccia’s motion for partial summary judgment to be granted.
