The developer has nothing to do with the contracts for the Health Care Providers. This happens all over the country. I have worked in healthcare billing for over 35 years. Each year the insurance companies contract with the health care providers. If the insurance companies do not offer a fair rate, the healthcare provider does not have to contract with them. Insurance companies actually pay very little. If you take a close look at your explanation of benefits from your insurance carrier, you will notice the allowed amount and the paid amount. The difference between these amounts is written off by the healthcRe professional. The patient is only responsible for their copayment and/or deductible
