Also: Do not go to remote areas, just go to New Jersey ED patients who still do not get a fair shake. BCBS will not pay for any residential program, I think the $2.45 million could be used to help save the lives of many young women in New Jersey who suffer and die from an eating disorder.

The attorneys will receive 2.45 million. I have to wonder why the attorneys get more than the plaintiffs? We could sure help a lot of people who do not have healthcare with with 2.45 million. This would fund our charity care clinic for 3 years or help Remote Area Medicine bring healthcare to those in rural areas who really need it.
