How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • concluding that state laws that control insurance contract terms are generally seen to regulate insurance under either the ERISA savings clause or the McCarran-Ferguson Act
  • holding that Missouri statutes regulating some aspects of how Missouri HMOs provide prescription drugs through network pharmacies regulate insurance and, therefore, fall within ERISA’s savings clause
  • “State laws that are not targeted at ERISA plans, but which indirectly force a plan administrator to make a particular decision or take a particular action may be held to ‘relate to’ employee benefit plans.”
