 |

Check out some news and links about what appears to be a national trend. Some of the blues are minority shareholders in New Directions which is out of KS and operates out of some of the BCBS facilities (at least in FL). APA and FPA have raised issues with their initial contract, and fees have been drastically cut. Arkansas, KS, Texas and now FL... your state may be next! See what your in for:

Psychiatry also concerned. See the following for A concerning analysis of the Florida New Directions approach to managing Blue Cross Blue Shield mental health benefits:
