Statute of Limitations and the Likelihood of Reimbursements by Broadspire


Broadspire is one of the foremost third-party risk management administrators to large insurance companies and employers. Broadspire has been retained by DePuy to engage in damage control regarding the ASR hip implant claims.  It is likely that few people who have suffered medical harm because of a metal-on-metal hip implant truly understand the lengths such companies will go to in order to save their client as much money as possible. Broadspire is under orders by Johnson and Johnson and DePuy to downplay the public outcry regarding the ASR hip implant recall to the fullest extent possible. One of the avenues Broadspire will use for this specific purpose is to gain as much knowledge about patients as possible through the use of claimant data.

Will Benefits Be Discontinued?

If you or a loved one has suffered an adverse medical event which is directly related to a metal-on-metal hip implant then one look at Broadspire’s website should give you an idea of the true nature of this company and the depths they will go to in order to benefit their client.  Privileged medical records are being used for the benefit of Johnson and Johnson and DePuy via an entire panel of medical professionals at their beck and call. Many of those victims of the hip implant currently rely on the reimbursement benefits being offered through Broadspire which covers their co-pays and deductibles. The question on everyone’s minds now is whether those benefits will continue after the statute of limitations runs out in August, 2012.
