OPINION

PER CURIAM:


We referred this case to the Court of Appeals of Maryland by order entered April 15, 1993 and reported in 992 F.2d 36 (4th Cir. 1993).

The Court of Appeals of Maryland responded to our request with its opinion filed November 15, 1993 and reported in 332 Md. 627, 632 A.2d 1170 (1993).

Pursuant to the opinion of the Court of Appeals of Maryland, this case is remanded to the district court for return by that court to the Arbitration Office mentioned in the statute involved for arbitration proceedings under the Maryland Health Claims Arbitration Act, Md.Cts. & Jud.Proc.Code Ann. Secs. 3-2A-01 to 3-2A-09 (1989 Repl. Vol. & Supp.1993).

The judgment of the district court is accordingly vacated, and the case is remanded for action consistent with this opinion and the opinion of the Court of Appeals of Maryland, as mentioned above.
