Superior Officers Council Health & Welfare Fund v. Empire HealthChoice Assurance, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
OPINION OF THE COURT
Memorandum.
The order of the Appellate Division should be affirmed, with costs.
The Appellate Division properly construed the plain language of the agreement and determined that plaintiffs’ failure to adopt a drug formulary bars them from sharing in certain rebates that defendant received from prescription drug manufacturers. Additionally, plaintiffs fail to state a cause of action for breach of fiduciary duty separate and apart from their breach of contract claim.
Chief Judge Lippman and Judges Ciparick, Graffeo, Read, Smith, Pigott and Jones concur.
On review of submissions pursuant to section 500.11 of the Rules of the Court of Appeals (22 NYCRR 500.11), order affirmed, with costs, in a memorandum.
