This is a declaratory judgment action under section 502(a)(1)(B) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA"), 29 U.S.C. § 1132(a)(1)(B), to determine entitlement to health benefits under an employee welfare benefit plan. Plaintiff-Appellant, Philip Bernstein ("Philip"), brought this action as the personal representative of the estate of his brother, Jeffrey Bernstein ("Jeffrey"), who died of AIDSrelated complications in July 1992. Philip claims that Jeffrey was entitled to coverage under his health plan with Defendant-Appellee, CapitalCare, Inc. ("CapitalCare"), for his hospitalization at the New York Hospital from May 6, 1992 to July 8, 1992. Jeffrey was a member of a health maintenance organization ("HMO") operated by CapitalCare in the Washington, D.C. area.
