Federal appeals court rules that Affinity Living Group is entitled to insurance coverage related to False Claims Act lawsuit
A federal appeals court ruled this week that StarStone Specialty Insurance Co. must cover Affinity Senior Living’s costs to successfully defend against a $60 million False Claims Act lawsuit alleging the North Carolina-based operator engaged in billing fraud. The ruling overturned a lower court’s decision in October 2018 that StarStone had no obligation to cover Affinity’s legal costs.
