Knox County Hospital, Blue Cross Blue Shield headed to arbitration in $21 million lawsuit

A $21 million lawsuit by Knox County Hospital District against Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas is headed to arbitration. Federal District Judge Reed O'Connor issued the ruling in December, forcing the two battling entities to conclude the majority of the matter outside of court. Knox County Hospital District's termination claim was exempted from arbitration, though. Once the two have concluded the process, O'Connor ruled, they'll return to court to finish the process.
