This settlement resolves claims that the GEICO companies underpaid Florida health care providers on personal injury protection (PIP) bills by not applying the highest 2007 Medicare Part B rate. It covered providers who held an assignment of benefits and billed GEICO between September 18, 2015 and August 12, 2024, and the claim window closed in February 2025.

What Was the Case About?
The complaint alleged that the GEICO companies misinterpreted Florida's No-Fault Law when calculating what they owed health care providers on personal injury protection bills. It contended that GEICO failed to use the highest allowable amount under Medicare Part B for 2007 when issuing payment, which plaintiffs argued violated § 627.736(5)(a)(2), Florida Statutes, and left providers reimbursed at less than the fee schedule allowed. GEICO agreed to the settlement to resolve the claims and did not admit wrongdoing.Florida's PIP system pays medical bills arising from auto accidents regardless of fault. Providers who treat an injured insured commonly take an assignment of benefits and bill the insurer directly, which is why the class here is made up of health care providers rather than drivers.
The GEICO entities involved were GEICO Indemnity Company, GEICO General Insurance Company, GEICO Casualty Company and Government Employees Insurance Company. Each operates under the GEICO brand for different policy types, and GEICO is a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway.
Who Was Covered?
The settlement class covered Florida health care providers that were assigns or assignees of covered insureds under an automobile policy issued by the GEICO companies and that, during the class period, submitted bills to GEICO for payment of PIP benefits on which GEICO allowed an amount less than the highest allowable amount under Medicare Part B for 2007 and issued payment on that basis.The class period ran from September 18, 2015 through August 12, 2024. Coverage turned on the billing relationship and the underpayment, not on the type of practice, so imaging centers, clinics and other billing providers could qualify on the same terms.
What Did the Settlement Provide?
Providers who submitted a qualifying claim form were entitled to two things:• Claim readjustment: 35% of 80% of the difference, if any, between the highest allowable amount under Medicare Part B for 2007 and the amount GEICO previously paid on the qualifying claim.
• Submission payment: a flat $5.00 for each valid settlement claim form submitted by U.S. Mail, described in the notice as a postage and submission payment.
Because the readjustment is calculated claim by claim, there was no fixed per-provider figure. The amount depended on how far each qualifying payment fell below the 2007 schedule and on how many qualifying claims a provider submitted.
What About the "$9 Million" Figure?
An earlier version of this page described the settlement as roughly $9 million. That number was not taken from the settlement documents — it was derived by working backward from the $2,990,000 that class counsel could request in fees and expenses, assuming fees represent about a third of a common fund. The notice does not support that assumption. It states that any attorneys' fees and expenses awarded are to be paid solely by the GEICO companies, separate and apart from settlement benefits, and that they do not reduce or otherwise affect what class members receive. No common settlement fund figure was announced for this case, and this page no longer carries the $9 million characterization.What Proof Was Required?
Filing was documentation-based. A separate settlement claim form was required for each patient or insured whose treatment gave rise to the disputed bills. The form asked for the GEICO insurance claim number, along with the policy number where available, and for a tax identification number if the claimant was an entity or the last four digits of a Social Security number if the claimant was an individual. Available supporting documentation, such as an Explanation of Benefits, was to be submitted with the form. Because per-claim identifiers and documentation were needed to file, this page is marked Proof Required: Yes.How Claims Were Filed
Providers could upload completed claim forms through the official settlement website or mail them to the settlement administrator, JND Legal Administration. Forms had to be postmarked or uploaded no later than February 24, 2025. The $5.00 submission payment applied only to forms sent by U.S. Mail.Official information remains posted at Florida All X-Ray Settlement.
