Judge Dismisses Suit Against Individual Health Insurer

A Nevada City, Calif., state court judge has entered a judgment dismissing a former policyholder’s lawsuit against a health insurer.

The policyholder, David Henderson, has accused the MEGA Life and Health Insurance Company, a unit of a company now known as HealthMarkets Inc., North Richland Hills, Texas, of misleading him and his wife about the nature of its individual health insurance products.

California Superior Court Judge Dover has knocked down all counts in the suit, according to HealthMarkets.
