In the US, you can sue pretty much anybody. Doesn't mean you'll win, and if it's obviously not a valid case the judge will just throw it out.

Yes, you can sue a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) under certain circumstances, such as if they have breached their contract with you or if they have denied you necessary medical care that you are entitled to receive. It is advisable to consult with a legal professional to discuss the specifics of your situation and determine the best course of action.
