Amerigroup fined $48M for discrimination [USA]

Insurance company Amerigroup Corp. and its Illinois affiliate were held liable Monday for what lawyers said ultimately would total $144 million in damages for discriminating against pregnant women...Federal and state prosecutors as well as a whistleblower said that while marketing its services in Illinois, Amerigroup avoided pregnant women and others likely to run up high doctor bills..."We would respectfully but very strongly disagree with the jury's verdict and we will appeal," company spokesman Kent Jenkins Jr. said.
