Employees file no-poach lawsuit against Surgical Care Affiliates, DaVita and USPI
Lawsuit filed
A putative class action was filed against Surgical Care Affiliates LLC, DaVita Inc. and United Surgical Partners International, Inc. Plaintiffs accuse the companies of maintaining a multi-year agreement not to solicit each other’s senior-level employees and claim the conduct violates the Sherman Act; the allegations are claims in the lawsuit, not a court determination.
