Shimrony and Calderón are among the lead plaintiffs in a lawsuit filed last week against Emblem Health, which offers the most popular health plan for New York City employees. The city employees allege that extensive errors in Emblem Health’s directory left them with a “deceptive” and “misleading” impression about the size of the insurer’s provider network. The employees were forced to delay care, forgo treatment or seek help from costlier out-of-network providers, said the lawsuit, which is seeking class-action status.
