環球保健因醫生離職訴訟在內華達州面臨 5 億美元的懲罰性賠償判決

Universal Health Services Inc. faces a significant legal setback following a recent jury verdict in Washoe County, Nevada. UHS of Delaware, Inc., a subsidiary, and other defendants were ordered to pay approximately $4.7 million in compensatory damages related to claims of intentional interference with contractual relationships and prospective economic advantage. Additionally, the jury awarded $500 million in punitive damages against UHS of Delaware, Inc., although Nevada law is expected to reduce this figure to around $14 million, with the possibility of further reductions depending on appellate court decisions. The case stems from the departure of several physicians from St. Mary’s Medical Group in Reno to Pinnacle Medical Group in 2021. Universal Health Services Inc. and the other defendants plan to challenge the verdict and are currently assessing their legal options. The ultimate financial impact remains uncertain and could be material depending on the outcome of post-judgment proceedings and appeals.
