Attorney General Sues Allegheny County Diagnostic Imaging Network

Attorney General Tom Corbett has filed a civil lawsuit and separate petition seeking a court order to require an Allegheny County diagnostic imaging center to re-open its record storage facilities and release the personal medical records of thousands of southwestern Pennsylvania residents. The records are stored in five separate imaging centers, plus the companies' corporate and administrative offices.

The legal actions seek court intervention for the retrieval of medical records, an order freezing the defendants' assets, the payment of fines and investigation costs, plus a permanent injunction barring the defendants from engaging in illegal business practices.

The lawsuit and separate Ex Parte Petition for Special Injunctive Relief were filed in Commonwealth Court against the following defendants: Main Medical Holding, LLC, 2711 Centerville Road, Wilmington, Delaware; Main Medical Ventures, LLC, 2403 Sidney Street, Pittsburgh; Mid-Atlantic Imaging Network Inc. (MAIN Medical), with an administrative office at 2403 Sidney Street, Pittsburgh; Anthony J. Geramita, individually, and as President and Chief Operating Officer of MAIN Medical; and Dr. Georgine B. DeMarino, individually, and as Medical Director and Executive Vice President of MAIN Medical.
