Elevance Health, the health insurance provider previously known as Anthem, was sued on Sept. 7 in California Central District Court to block the company's efforts to enforce a former senior executive's non-compete agreement. The court case was brought by King & Spalding on behalf of managed health care giant Molina Healthcare and Vinod Mohan, former president of Elevance's western U.S. Medicare division. The complaint seeks declaratory judgment that forum selection, choice-of-law, non-competition and non-solicitation provisions in Mohan's 2020 employment contract are void and cannot be enforced. Elevance sued Mohan in the Southern District of Indiana shortly before her scheduled start date as senior vice president of Molina's Medicare business; Elevance is represented by Frost Brown Todd in that matter. The case is 2:23-cv-07417, Molina Healthcare, Inc. v. Elevance Health, Inc.
