Independence Blue Cross

Philadelphia, PA: (Apr-26-07) Ninety-one Independence Blue Cross quality data analysts filed a lawsuit against the company, accusing it of not providing stipulated overtime pay. On Feb. 6, analyst Elizabeth McGraw filed a lawsuit on behalf of herself and colleagues in Philadelphia Common Pleas Court, alleging that in March 2006, the health insurer decided that the analysts should have been paid overtime for extra hours worked between March 2004 and February 2006. The suit claimed that they had not been paid enough. In a settlement reached, both parties agreed to avoid the expense and uncertainties of litigation. As part of the settlement, Independence Blue Cross agreed to pay $625,000 to end all claims against it. [PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER: UNPAID OVERTIME]
