ORDER

Plaintiff Ashley Johnson sued Health Care Service Corporation, d/b/a Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma (“HCSC”) in state court seeking to recover insurance benefits for medical treatment she received following an automobile accident. In her complaint,1 plaintiff asserts breach of contract and bad faith claims. HCSC removed the action, which is governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security. Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), 29 U-S.C. §§ 1001-1461, and both parties have moved for judgment on the basis- of the Administrative Record.2

Background

On January 12, 2012, plaintiff was involved in an automobile accident and incurred medical expenses as a result of her injuries. At the time, plaintiff worked for Edwin Fair Community Mental Health Center (“Edwin Center”) and was a participant in a BlueChoice employee benefit plan, which Edwin Center had established *1262to provide health benefits for its employees. Edwin Center is the benefit plan’s administrator and HSCE is its insurer and claims administrator. The benefit plan defines Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma as the “Plan,” AR 0019, and refers to it as the “Plan” throughout the document. See, e.g., AR 0098 (“In determining whether services or supplies are Covered Services, the Plan will determine.,..”); AR 0104 (“Once the Plan receives a Properly Filed Claim from you or your .Provider....”).3

Plaintiff alleges in her complaint and brief that she “provided her medical providers with her health insurance information, and requested that said medical providers file her medical bills with her health insurance for payment.”4 Doc. Nos. 1, p. 2, ¶ 6; 14, p. 3, ¶ 3. She also alleges that she asked her medical providers not to “wait[ ] for a potential settlement from the personal injury claim filed with the liability automobile insurance, Progressive Insurance.” Id.

The benefit plan requires a participant to furnish a “Properly Filed Claim”- to HSCS within 90 days after -the end of the calendar year' during which the services were rendered. AR 0096, A “Properly Filed Claim” is defined by the benefit plan as “a formal statement or claim regarding a loss which provides sufficient, substantiating information to allow the Plan to determine its liability for Covered Services,” AR 0020. It “includes: a completed claim form; the Provider’s itemized statement of services rendered and related charges; and medical records, when required by the Plan.” Id. Unless the participant furnishes HSCS with proper notice that he or she has received “Covered Services,” the benefit plan provides that HCSC “will not be liable” for payment of any benefits.5 AR 0096. If, however, a participant shows that “the claim was given as Soon as reasonably possible,” the benefit plan provides that paynpent will not be reduced by the participant’s failure to provide a “Properly Filed Claim to the Plari” within the specified time. Id, The benefit plan also imposes a three year limitations period for a participant to take legal- action to recover benefits, which runs from the date -a “Properly Filed Claim” must be submitted to HCSC.6 AR 0030, 0096.

The Record indicates that in January/early February 2012, HCSC paid a claim for medical services plaintiff received on January 15, 2012, at Mercy After Hours, a medical clinic. On February 1, 2012,-HCSC sent-plaintiff an Explanations of Benefit (“EOB”) informing her of the action taken on the claim. AR 0207 — 0211. HCSjC subsequently ' paid three more *1263claims for medical treatment plaintiff received from Dr. Robert Tibbs at Neuroscience Specialists on April 25, 2012, August 10, 2012 and September 5, 2012. AR 0212-AR 0223.7 HCSC again sent plaintiff EOBs, explaining its claims decisions. Id.

According to the Record, HSCS did not receive any more claims from plaintiffs medical providers until August 2018. Beginning in August through September 2013,8 multiple .providers sent HSCA claims for services plaintiff had been rendered in January 2012 (Spinal Wellness Clinic, INTEGRIS Southwest Medical Center and Emergency Medical Services) and May through September 2012 (Northern Therapy and Rehabilitation). HSCS stated in the EOBs it sent plaintiff that it denied them all because the charges were submitted after the claim filing" deadline set out in plaintiffs health care plan. See, e.g., AR 0203. Under the terms of the benefit plan, because the services were rendered between January 2012 and September 2012, plaintiff had to .submit her claims for benefits within 90 days of December 31,2012, or by March 31,2013, and file an action to recover any benefits due no later than March 31, 2016.

Although the EOBs informed plaintiff of her appeal rights under the benefit plan, she did not challenge any of defendant’s claim denials. Instead, plaintiffs-attorney sent defendant a letter dated February 24, 2014, in which he stated that plaintiff had been injured in an automobile accident on January 14, 2012, and had “provided all of her medical providers with her health insurance information, and requested, that they file the .proper claims timely with BlueCross BlueShield.”- AR 0287. Because the “medical providers failed to do so,” plaintiffs attorney said plaintiff had sought his assistance “in an attempt to recover some of the medical expenses that [plaintiff] has now paid out of pocket.” Id. Plaintiffs counsel then listed plaintiffs medical providers, the amount of their bills, an itemized statement from each provider with the codes, required to file insurance claims on plaintiffs behalf and requested that defendant contact him to discuss the matter.

By letter dated March 19, 2014, defendant responded to plaintiffs attorney, notifying plaintiff of its right of reimbursement and/or subrogation under the benefit plan. It asked for verification of any amounts plaintiff had received as an award or settlement for her medical expenses resulting from her accident. Neither plaintiff nor her counsel respondedlo that letter or to a letter sent the next month, in which defendant requested claim information for its files. The .Record reflects that defendant unsuccessfully attempted to contact plaintiffs counsel-by telephone from April through October, 2014;-.-Plaintiffs counsel eventually responded to a letter defendant faxed him regarding its potential right of subrogation. He faxed defendant a note stating: “This is not a subro-*1264gation claim and we have notified you of that in writing repeatedly. We are attempting to get you to pay Ms. Gammon’s bills, not requesting subrogation information.” AR 0359. The Record reflects defendant then attempted to contact plaintiff directly by telephone from November 2014 through March 2015, but its calls went unanswered.

Defendant proceeded to consider the claims plaintiffs counsel listed in his February 24, 2014, letter, except for the few it had already received and processed.9 AR 0252-0284. It denied them on the ground the charges were submitted after the claim filing deadline. Id. Plaintiff did not appeal that decision as permitted by the benefit plan. She filed this action on October 6, 2016.

Standard of Review

As the Scheduling Order reflects, the parties acknowledge that the case is governed by ERISA. See Doc. #11. Plaintiff also states in her motion for judgment that she seeks to “recover health insurance benefits due to her under the terms of her health insurance plan with Defendant HCSC under 29 U.S.C.A. § 1132(a)(1)(B).” Doc. #14, pp. 1, 6. To the extent that plaintiff may still be attempting to pursue some state law claims,10 they are completely preempted by ERISA. See Salzer v. SSM Health Care of Oklahoma Inc., 762 F.3d 1130, 1134-35 (10th Cir. 2014).

Firestone Tire & Rubber Co. v. Bruch, 489 U.S. 101, 109 S.Ct. 948, 103 L.Ed.2d 80 (1989) sets forth the applicable standard of review in cases in which a plaintiff contests a benefit determination under an ERISA plan. “[A] denial of benefits challenged under § 1132(a)(1)(B) is to be reviewed under a de novo standard unless the benefit plan gives the administrator or fiduciary discretionary authority to determine eligibility for benefits or to construe the terms of the plan.” Id. at 115, 109 S.Ct. 948. If the ERISA plan “ ‘gives the administrator or fiduciary discretionary authority to determine eligibility for benefits or to construe the terms of the plan, [the court] reviewfs] the administrator’s decision for an abuse of discretion.’” Holcomb v. Unum Life Ins. Co. of Am., 578 F.3d 1187, 1192 (10th Cir. 2009) (quoting Fought v. UNUM Life Ins. Co. of Am., 379 F.3d 997, 1002-03 (10th Cir. 2004)). The court’s review under the abuse of discretion, or arbitrary and capricious, standard is limited, “... asking only whether the interpretation of the plan “was reasonable and made in good faith.’”11 Weber v. GE Group Life Assur. Co., 541 F.3d 1002, 1010 (10th Cir. 2008) (quoting Flinders v. Workforce Stabilization Plan of Phillips Petroleum Co., 491 F.3d 1180, 1189 (10th Cir. 2007)).

Here, because the benefit plan gives defendant discretionary authority to construe its terms and determine eligibility for benefits, AR 0027, the court reviews defendant’s claims decisions for abuse of discretion. However, because defendant operated under an inherent conflict of in*1265terest as both the insurer and decision-maker (claims administrator) for the benefit plan, the court “weigh[s] the conflict of interest as a facto[r] in determining whether there is an abuse of discretion.”12 Holcomb, 578 F.3d at 1192 (internal quotation marks omitted).13

“[W]hen reviewing a plan administrator’s decision to deny benefits, [the court] considers] only the rationale asserted by the plan administrator in the administrative record.” Weber, 541 F.3d at 1011 (quoting Flinders, 491 F.3d at 1190). Because the determination is based on the language of the benefit plan, the court scrutinize^] the “plan documents as a whole and, if unambiguous, construe[s] them as a matter of law.” Id. (internal quotation marks omitted).

Discussion

Plaintiff does not contend that the terms of the benefit plan are ambiguous or that defendant misinterpreted or misapplied them. What she argues is that she “properly provided her insurance information to all of her providers at the time services were rendered.” Doc. #14, p. 6. However, the benefit plan explicitly requires that the participant’s “Properly Filed Claim must be furnished to the Plan.” AR 0096. Plaintiffs attorney admitted in the letter he sent defendant on February 24, 2014, that her medical providers failed “to file the proper claims timely with BlueCross Blue Shield.” AR 0287.

Plaintiff does make the statement in her motion that defendant “was given timely and proper notice of her claims.” Doc. #14, p. 6. The evidence she cites, — claim forms and EOBs — fails, though, to substantiate her assertion.14 The Record simply does not reflect that defendant was given any notice before March 31, 2013, of the claims it denied, much less the notice and “Properly Filed Claims” that are required by the benefit plan. See AR 0096.

Plaintiffs other argument — that she was unaware of any filing deadline and was not provided a benefit booklet by defendant prior to this lawsuit — is similarly unavailing. While Plaintiff cites no authority in support of her position, defendant has shown that it was not obligated to furnish plaintiff with a copy of the benefit plan description. ERISA requires the benefit plan administrator, in this case plaintiffs employer, Edwin Center, to fulfill that duty. See 29 U.S.C. § 1024(b)(1)(A); Holmes v. Colorado Coal. for Homeless Long Term Disability Plan, 762 F.3d 1195, 1199 (10th Cir. 2014) (“ERISA requires plan administrators to provide participants with a ‘summary plan description,’ which must reasonably apprise participants of their rights and obligations under the plan.”), cert. denied, — U.S. -, 135 S.Ct. 1402, 191 L.Ed.2d 361 (2015). And the benefit plan itself also specifically *1266states that the “Employer further agrees that it is solely responsible for providing each employee access” to the most current version of the Certificate of Benefits. AR 0013.

Plaintiff offers no other reason why she is entitled to recover “a judgment against Defendant for payment of her medical bills.” Doc. #14, p. 6, Unfortunately, plaintiff apparently relied on her medical providers to forward her claims to defendant for payment. Why they failed to do so— whether because they were not “participating providers”15 or for some other reason — is unclear. What is clear is that plaintiff did not comply with the unambiguous provisions of the benefit plan, which required that she furnish defendant with “Properly Filed Claims” by March 31, 2013, or sue it no later than March 31, 2016. She did neither, even though she should have been put on notice of some problem with the payment process because the Record reflects that defendant sent her EOBs regarding other claims generated during the same time period which had been filed and which it had paid. Based on the Administi’ative Record, the court concludes defendant did not abuse its discretion when it denied plaintiffs claims for medical benefits under the ERISA plan for being untimely. Accordingly, plaintiffs motion for-judgment [Doc. #14] is denied and defendant’s motion for judgment [Doc. #16] is granted.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
