A union trust fund for grocery store workers has filed a class action lawsuit against Sutter Health for violations of California’s antitrust and unfair competition statutes, alleging the unchecked, anti-competitive behavior by the health care provider and its affiliates resulted in substantial overcharges by its hospitals.
The suit was filed in the San Francisco County Superior Court on April 7 by the UFCW & Employers Benefit Trust (UEBT), an employment benefits trust that pays most of the health care costs incurred by the 60,000 members of the United Food and Commercial Workers union (UFCW) and their dependents in Northern California.
