Simple Health Plans LLC
The FTC filed a federal court complaint against Simple Health Plans LLC, Steven J. Dorfman, and related entities in October 2018, alleging that defendants deceived consumers into believing they were purchasing comprehensive health insurance covering preexisting conditions, prescription drugs, specialist care, hospital services, surgeries, and lab testing. An amended complaint was filed in November 2019 adding Candida Girouard as a defendant. The case centers on fraudulent misrepresentation of health plan coverage rather than specific therapeutic marketing claims. This is a critical enforcement action involving federal court litigation.
