In her 2015 lawsuit, Shannen Doherty blamed her cancer diagnosis on her ex-manager, Tia Boyd, and her employers, Tanner, Mainstain, Glynn & Johnson. Per TMZ, the documents allege the firm missed one of Doherty’s SAG health insurance payments in 2014, causing her policy to lapse. The lawsuit claims the insurance couldn’t be reinstated until 2015, resulting in Doherty skipping doctor visits in the months in between. After regaining her insurance and visiting her doctor again, Doherty received the devastating news that she had “invasive breast cancer metastatic to at least one lymph node.”
The lawsuit claims Doherty’s doctors told her that her cancer had spread during the period she was uninsured and that she would now have to undergo invasive surgery and treatment that could have been avoided if her cancer had been detected earlier. According to People, Doherty later filed a second motion, alleging an employee from the management company called her insurance brokers “and falsely identified herself as Ms. Doherty in an unauthorized effort to obtain [Doherty’s] confidential medical information for use by Tanner Mainstain in this litigation.”
Doherty’s management company admitted to calling the insurance brokers. Still, it denied impersonating its former client or attempting to obtain her personal records. “Tanner Mainstain never sought Ms. Doherty’s confidential medical information from SAG. Before the lawsuit was even filed and as the tapes clearly indicate, they merely sought information regarding where a SAG invoice was mailed,” they insisted in a statement.
