Arbitration enables disputing parties to choose a neutral arbitrator with specific industry knowledge, which is particularly advantageous in areas like employee benefits arbitration and healthcare dispute resolution. This expert can define and oversee a process customized for the swift and fair resolution of disputes. Our arbitrators uniquely apply well-defined discovery protocols and may manage the dispute in phases if necessary. They also establish procedures for witnesses and experts to enhance the overall efficiency of the process. Baseball style arbitration is required under the No Surprises Act. We regularly arbitrate healthcare claims for the State of Washington. Our services are available both in-person and virtually.
Mediation is a negotiation facilitated by a neutral third party, proving to be particularly valuable in contexts such as employee benefits arbitration and healthcare dispute resolution.

The No Surprises Act (NSA) establishes essential billing protections for patients receiving emergency care, non-emergency care from out-of-network providers at in-network facilities, and air ambulance services from out-of-network providers. In the realm of healthcare dispute resolution, payment disputes between payors and providers must be managed through informal negotiation or can escalate to binding Independent Dispute Resolution (IDR), arbitrated by a Certified IDR Entity. We are currently seeking approval as a Certified IDR Entity, which would empower us to manage NSA IDR disputes via the formal IDR process, thereby enhancing our involvement in employee benefits arbitration and ensuring No Surprises Act compliance.
Employee benefit plans, whether or not they fall under ERISA, must adhere to well-defined regulatory standards.

With decades of experience in ERISA and employee benefits matters, we have successfully represented plan sponsors, participants, and plan service providers in benefits arbitration cases, while also serving as arbitrators. Our expertise further encompasses healthcare dispute resolution, including navigating No Surprises Act compliance and the NSA IDR processes.

Our primary goal is to deliver conflict-free, evidence-based decisions that support effective healthcare resource allocation and protect patient rights.
