About the Lawsuit
iRhythm and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.
On December 1, 2020, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) announced its 2021 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule (MPFS) Final Rule establishing the payment policies and rates that Medicare will use next year. However, the Rule did not finalize pricing reimbursement rates for several items relevant to the Company, including codes related to cardiac monitoring. On this news, the price of iRhythm’s shares plummeted approximately 20%.
Then, on January 29, 2021, an analyst at Baird Research noted that Medicare Administrative Contractor rates published by Novitas Solutions, a Medicare administrative contractor, “look way lower” than those published in the MPFS.
On this news, the price of iRhythm’s shares plummeted approximately 33%.
The case is Habelt v. iRhythm Technologies, Inc., et al., No. 3:21-cv-00776.
