SDAHO Enterprises Endorsed Business Partner, Managed Care Advisory Group (MCAG) is excited to share the news that a major milestone has been reached in the Visa/Mastercard Settlement. The court that oversees the case set a deadline of July 24 for any appeals to be filed to the United States Supreme Court. That date has passed, and the parties are currently preparing to administer the claims process. In addition to this important news, just last week, the Judge in this case appointed a Special Master to resolve any issues relating to the Plan of Administration and Distribution for this settlement.
