Background of the Lawsuit
The lawsuit, McLarty, et al. v. Presbyterian Healthcare Services, Inc. (Case No. D-101-CV-2020-01566), was filed in the First Judicial District Court of New Mexico by plaintiffs Eilene McLarty and Ernestine Jaramillo. They alleged that Presbyterian misrepresented Dr. Guy Rosenschein as a qualified pediatric surgeon and urologist while he was employed at Presbyterian between November 26, 2012, and December 31, 2016. The suit sought compensation for fees paid for Dr. Rosenschein’s services.
Presbyterian denies all allegations. The healthcare system contends that Dr. Rosenschein was properly qualified and credentialed, and that it owed no compensation to patients’ families. The Court has not ruled on the merits of either side’s position.
Rather than take the case to trial, where the outcome was uncertain and damages were already limited by a court ruling, the parties agreed to a $3,500,000 settlement. Of that amount, $2,465,000 is set aside for payments to class members, with each eligible parent or guardian receiving an equal share.
