STEPHEN. H. ANDERSON, Circuit Judge.
This matter concerns a malpractice action originally filed in state court. Pacificare of Oklahoma, Inc., a health maintenance organization (HMO) and one of the named defendants, removed the action to federal court, stating the state law claims are preempted by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), 29 U.S.C. § 1144(a). The district court concluded that ERISA preempts only one of plaintiffs three claims. The court dismissed the preempted claim and remanded the other two claims to state court, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1367(c)(3).1
