Texas AG investigates Superior HealthPlan for alleged surveillance of lawmakers, citizens

News summary

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has initiated an investigation into Superior HealthPlan for allegedly employing private investigators to spy on lawmakers, journalists, and citizens with pending insurance claims. This investigation follows a public hearing where Superior's CEO, Mark Sanders, admitted to hiring investigators for what he described as 'general research' using publicly available information. Lawmakers voiced concerns that these surveillance tactics could be aimed at gaining leverage for state contracts and discrediting legitimate claims. Paxton characterized the allegations of potentially blackmailing lawmakers and surveilling citizens as 'deeply troubling,' vowing to uncover any illegal activities. The investigation raises serious questions about the misuse of taxpayer funds and the ethical conduct of a Medicaid insurance provider. As the inquiry unfolds, further updates are anticipated regarding the findings and implications for Superior HealthPlan.
