Case overview
What this settlement is about
Kaiser Permanente is resolving claims tied to how it handled reimbursement for out-of-network mental health services. If you're a Kaiser member who had trouble accessing in-network mental health care on or after January 1, 2021, and turned to an out-of-network provider as a result, you may be able to file a claim.
