Missouri Medicaid lawsuit dismissed

Posted: 05.12.2012 at 4:36 PM

A judge has dismissed a lawsuit challenging Missouri's new Medicaid insurance contracts covering more than 400,000 low-income residents.

The ruling yesterday by special Judge B.C. Drumm Junior rejects all aspects of a lawsuit brought by Molina Healthcare Incorporated.

The judge also denied Molina's request for an injunction blocking the state's new Medicaid managed care contracts from taking effect July 1st.
