Yeah. And I think, you know, this all just a couple of like quotes about this financial piece, you know, they're saying that, you know, from one of them, from the virtue complaint. Plaintiffs paid out of pockets for multiple surgeries recommended under false pretenses. Defendants intentionally billed outside of insurance coverage to shield from review.
