Cambia Health Solutions — Insurance Coverage

Jim McDermott and Dwain Clifford represent Cambia, a health-insurance provider. Cambia purchased “errors and omissions” liability coverage from various insurers, building a tower consisting of a primary policy and several layers of excess coverage. Atlantic Specialty was one of those excess insurers, providing a second layer excess “follow form” liability policy to Cambia with $10 million in limits. Cambia was sued for alleged antitrust violations, which squarely fall within the coverage terms of the primary policy and, accordingly, all of the “follow form” excess policies, including the policy issued by Atlantic Specialty. Cambia negotiated a settlement of the claims against it and obtained coverage settlements from every insurer except one: Atlantic Specialty. We now represent Cambia in its lawsuit to compel Atlantic Specialty to acknowledge and pay Cambia’s covered losses.
