Arbitrator rules CareSource must pay $2.8 million to Kettering Health

An arbitrator has ruled in favor of Kettering Health Network in a dispute with CareSource over reimbursements for outpatient services.

In the original complaint filed in March 2013, Kettering Health Network, one of the area’s largest hospital systems, accused Medicaid managed-care provider CareSource of underpaying for certain surgical claims and sought a judgment of $4.1 million.
