Maryland Supreme Court upholds MSP Recovery's assignments, allowing GEICO class action to proceed
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Maryland's highest court unanimously ruled assignments from Medicare Advantage Organizations are valid and not champertous.
- Ruling enables MSP Recovery to pursue federal class action against GEICO for alleged systematic non-reimbursement of MAO conditional payments.
- Data-matching analysis from March 2011 to July 2019 identified substantial matches where GEICO settled claims but failed to reimburse MAOs.
- CEO John H. Ruiz called the decision a landmark affirmation of the company's model and mission.
- Court rejected GEICO's reliance on centuries-old champerty doctrines, confirming modern enforceability of assignment-based recovery strategy.
