A Kailua-Kona judge on Friday ruled that contract terms and conditions the state’s largest health insurer imposes on doctors and patients are “unconscionable” and “unenforceable.”
Third Circuit Chief Judge Robert S. Kim made the ruling in his written order denying Hawaii Medical Services Association’s motion to compel arbitration for claims made by Hilo obstetrician-gynecologist Dr. Frederick Nitta’s and the late Adrian “Scott” Norton.
