Court hears Blue Cross discount suit in Maryland
A Baltimore County Circuit judge is urged to block state rules that set statewide Blue Cross discounts. Maryland hospitals led by James J.

Sinai Hospital faces a mandate to reduce its discount from 4 percent to a lower rate by February 1 as part of the dispute.
