Notice of Long-Term Care Class Action Settlement

Overview

A class action was brought by Plaintiffs against MedAmerica Insurance Company and the North Carolina State Health Plan because of the increase in premiums for some of the Class Members for their long term care insurance provided by MedAmerica when you enrolled in the MedAmerica individual, direct-pay conversion policy. The case has been assigned to the Honorable Catherine C. Eagles, Senior Resident Superior Court Judge Presiding. Judge Eagles certified this matter as a class action on August 11, 2009. The parties have reached a Settlement Agreement and Judge Eagles has directed that this Notice be provided to you to inform you of your rights in the proposed Settlement as a member of the Class. You should read the entire Notice carefully because your legal rights are affected whether you act or not. (Click here for Notice.)
