Maricopa Unified School District Governing Board has filed a lawsuit against a pharmacy benefits firm that officials say was in breach of its contract with the district, according to a Pinal County Superior Court docket released this morning.

The suit was recently filed against Flipt LLC in the county’s highest court, but copies of the suit were not shared by the county attorney’s office.

MUSD administrators said the company owes the district more than $200,000 after services to the district were allegedly cut off without warning a year ago.

The administrators claim the company has not made attempts to settle with the district since it shut down its pharmacy benefit management services business, leaving the district without service.

MUSD Supt. Tracey Lopeman said: “We are disappointed by Flipt LLC’s termination of services without fulfilling their contractual obligations to Maricopa Unified School District.”
