The mother of an Arizona man who died after being unable to find mental health treatment is suing his health insurer, saying it broke the law by publishing false information that misled its customers. Ravi Coutinho, a 36-year-old entrepreneur, bought insurance from Ambetter, the most popular plan on HealthCare.gov, because it seemed to offer plenty of mental health and addiction treatment options near his home in Phoenix. But after struggling for months in early 2023 to find in-network care covered by his plan, he wasn't able to find a therapist.
The mother of Ravi Coutinho, the subject of a recent ProPublica investigation, is suing Centene for publishing "misleading" information that gave her son a false impression about the kinds of mental health care that were actually available.
