Illusory Policy Implications Of Behavioral Law & Economics, Terrance O'Reilly Jan 2023

Illusory Policy Implications Of Behavioral Law & Economics, Terrance O'Reilly

Marquette Law Review

Behavioral law and economics has achieved notable policy influence promoting soft paternalism—using nudges to encourage better choices without limiting options. Recently, some behavioral scholars have suggested that positive behavioral models actually support hard paternalism—imposing mandates. This Article challenges the insinuation that behavioral law and economics supports mandates.

Good Conduct Time For Prisoners: Why (And How) Wisconsin Should Provide Credits Toward Early Release, Michael O'Hear Oct 2014

Good Conduct Time For Prisoners: Why (And How) Wisconsin Should Provide Credits Toward Early Release, Michael O'Hear

Marquette Law Review

Wisconsin is one of about twenty states not offering good conduct time (GCT) to prisoners. In most states, prisoners are able to earn GCT credits toward accelerated release through good behavior. Wisconsin itself had GCT for more than a century, but eliminated it as part of a set of reforms in the 1980s and 1990s that left the state with what may be the nation’s most inflexible system for the release of prisoners. Although some of these reforms helpfully brought greater certainty to punishment, they went too far in eliminating nearly all meaningful recognition and encouragement of good behavior and …

Consumer-Driven Long Term Care: Shaping He Government's Role, Marshall B. Kapp Aug 2012

Marquette Elder's Advisor

This article explores the movement of government and insurance-paid long-term care programs which tend to delineate which services are provided toward a more consumer-driven model. Kapp discusses the necessity of informing consumers of the options available, regulations needed to assure that autonomous consumers have alternative options available, and the criteria needed to assure that clients with inadequate decisional capacity have their interests represented.


When Never Happens: Implications Of Medicare's Never-Event Policy, Hudson T. Rowland Aug 2012

When Never Happens: Implications Of Medicare's Never-Event Policy, Hudson T. Rowland

Marquette Elder's Advisor

This article discusses the Healthiest Wisconsin 2010 (HW2010) statute and its implementation to improve patient care through a denial of payment to hospitals when a selected condition takes place. The state of Wisconsin has created a program to improve the state's overall health through a partnership between the state department of health, universities, and other health providers. While the two programs have their differences, this article explores how the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services can learn from Wisconsin and HW2010 to create a more reasonable plan to improve patient safety.


The Role Of Private Responsibility In Closing The Gap Between Knowledge And Practice In Long-Term Care, Marshall B. Kapp Aug 2012

The Role Of Private Responsibility In Closing The Gap Between Knowledge And Practice In Long-Term Care, Marshall B. Kapp

Marquette Elder's Advisor

Kapp discusses the expanding need for long-term care services by looking at the goal put forward by aging policy analyst Dr. Larry Polivak of closing the gap between knowledge and practice in the United States long-term care financing and delivery system. The article first discusses points of agreement between Kapp and Polivak's viewpoints. Kapp then discusses how their viewpoints diverge and puts forth his own policy views about public versus private responsibility as it applies to long-term care.


International Human Rights And The Elderly, Jaclynn M. Miller Aug 2012

International Human Rights And The Elderly, Jaclynn M. Miller

Marquette Elder's Advisor

This article argues that despite the international instruments that make reference to the rights of the elderly, steps still need to be taken to ensure that both laws and enforcement policies are being created internationally and nationally to protect the elderly, especially those who need institutionalized care. For this to occur, better enforcement mechanisms must be created, primarily an international treaty specifically designed to protect the rights of the elderly. In the course of this argument, the article discusses the definition of old age, the existing international legal framework for the protection of the elderly, and examples of elder abuse. …

Government, through its policies, can play a major role in addressing the challenges that custodial grandparents face. This article discusses many of the key policies that impact the lives of custodial grandparents.
