Judge Blocks Anthem-Cigna Merger
A federal judge blocked the proposed $54 billion tie-up between national insurers Anthem and Cigna late Wednesday, saying the combination would harm competition in the national employer market. In a 12-page order, U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson said the merger would eliminate the firms’ head-to-head competition for the administrative services business of large employers and result in higher prices and reduced innovation in the market.
The judge also said Cigna, which has long shown lukewarm commitment to the merger, is “actively warning against it.” During the trial, Cigna officials presented “compelling testimony” that undermined the projections of future savings that would result from the merger. The two also have deep disagreements in strategy. Anthem attempted to cast these differences as a “side issue,” according to the order.
