Alaimo Family Chiropractic v. Allstate Insurance

HUDSON, Judge.

Alaimo Family Chiropractic (“Alaimo”) provided medical services to a patient who was injured in an automobile crash with a driver insured by Allstate Insurance Company (“Allstate”). The patient executed an “Assignment of Proceeds, Lien and Authorization” (“assignment”) in favor of Alaimo. When Allstate failed to heed the assignment and did not pay Alaimo for the treatment that Alaimo had provided, Alaimo sued. The district court granted Alaimo’s motion for summary judgment, and Allstate now appeals. For the reasons set forth below, we affirm the decision of the district court.
