CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A North Carolina Business Court ruling will allow Atrium Health to sign with a new anesthesia provider.
North Carolina Business Court Judge Michael Robinson issued a split order on Friday, granting Southeast Anesthesiology Consultant’s request for an injunction to block Atrium Health from soliciting its anesthesiologists.
He then denied Southeast Anesthesiology’s request for an injunction over its allegations that Atrium had obtained and used trade secrets and propriety information to establish a competing medical services provider.
Robinson’s order follows a nearly five-hour hearing this week between Atrium, Scope Anesthesia’s Dr. Thomas Wherry and Southeast Anesthesiology, an affiliate of Mednax. At stake is a nearly $100 million contract over anesthesiology services in the Charlotte market.
