SCOTUS Cert Grant on Preemption: Coventry Health Care v. Nevils

On Friday, the Supreme Court granted certiorari in Coventry Health Care of Missouri, Inc. v. Nevils, which presents the following questions:

1. Whether FEHBA preempts state laws that prevent carriers from seeking subrogation or reimbursement pursuant to their FEHBA contracts.
2. Whether FEHBA’s express-preemption provision, 5 U.S.C. § 8902(m)(1), violates the Supremacy Clause.
