Can I file a lawsuit against my employer who seems to discriminate on health insurance?



I work at a hospital. The health insurance they carry is United. The new benefits just opened and said they are now accepting "Domestic Parnters" to be on the insurance. The catch-only homosexual domestic partners, not heterosexual. United offers domestic partners at another hospital and allows both hetero and homosexual. So is the one hospital discriminating? Would this be a case for a law suit? Or can employers discriminate who they want on their insurance? Any good lawyers out here with advice?

Uh ... insurance companies offer different policies and different levels of coverage. Blue Cross in my area has about 17 different plans to choose from. It's up to the employer to decide which (if any) plan they want to offer and they certainly aren't under any obligation to pick the most expensive plan with the widest eligibility net.

How is it "discrimination" if a DIFFERENT hospital selected a DIFFERENT tier plan of United?

If what other people are getting really bothers you and you don't like the benefit selection at your current job ... go get a job at the other hospital.
You can certainly file a lawsuit... winning is another matter... and will be a very long, drawn-out affair. Ask yourself if you want to go through the agony of a trial.
NOT AN ATTORNEY BUT IT'S BEEN MY EXPERIENCE THAT THEY CAN DIS-ALLOW ANYONE THEY WANT TO.....YOU CAN SUE I SUPPOSE BUT FIRST A JUDGE HAS TO ACCEPT THE LAWSUIT, THEN YOU HAVE TO WAIT TILL THE COURT CALENDAR CLEARS AND THEN YOU HAVE TO HOPE YOU WIN............GOOD LUCK......
