Managed Care Disputes and Litigation Conference 2025

The Managed Care Disputes and Litigation Conference is an annual event organized by the American Conference Institute (ACI), focusing on the legal challenges and developments within the managed care industry. The 2025 conference provided a platform for legal professionals, including in-house counsel, outside counsel, and healthcare executives, to discuss and strategize around the evolving landscape of managed care disputes and litigation.

Key topics covered during the conference included enforcement trends and regulatory priorities affecting payors, the impact of political and policy changes on litigation and compliance, strategies for managing fraud, waste, and abuse enforcement, and critical decisions regarding Medicare Advantage and Medicaid under changing regulations. Additionally, the conference addressed the risks, compliance issues, and opportunities associated with importing drugs from Canada for Managed Care Organizations (MCOs).

The event featured distinguished speakers such as Renee Delphin-Rodriguez, Chief Legal Officer & General Counsel at SCAN, and co-chairs Korey Harvey, Vice President & Deputy General Counsel at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Louisiana, and Alex Lucas, Partner at Reed Smith LLP. Attendees had opportunities for networking, engaging in discussions on pressing legal challenges, and sharing proven approaches for navigating disputes in the payor space.

This conference is particularly beneficial for in-house counsel and business executives from MCOs, HMOs, and insurance companies specializing in litigation, risk management, claims, strategic payments, and payor relations disputes. Outside counsel specializing in health plans, health litigation, managed care litigation, managed care contracting, and payor disputes would also find the event valuable for gaining actionable insights and developing successful litigation and claims strategies.
