BALTIMORE -- Attorney General Brian E. Frosh on July 21 announced that the prime contractor hired to build Maryland's flawed health exchange web site will pay $45 million to avoid legal action over its performance.
Noridian Healthcare Solutions LLC has agreed to pay $20 million upfront, and an additional $25 million in annual installments of $5 million over five years. The payments represent a recovery of 61 percent of the total paid to the company for the failed web site development and launch in 2013.
"This company never delivered on what it promised, and, as a result, tens of millions of taxpayer dollars were wasted, and thousands of Marylanders suffered delays and frustration," Attorney General Frosh said. "This settlement sends a message that the performance was unacceptable, and that those responsible will be held accountable."
