When Self-Regulation, Market Forces, And Private Legal Actions Fail: Appropriate Government Regulation And Oversight Is Necessary To Ensure Minimum Standards Of Quality In Long-Term Health Care, Alexander D. Eremia

Annals of Health Law and Life Sciences

Mr. Eremia's paper discusses market forces, professional self-regulation, and private litigation individually and collectively as methods of maintaining and improving quality of care. He determines that whether separately or in conjunction, these three paradigms have not been successful agents in this regard. By analyzing the regulatory framework and oversight provided by the federal government in the long-term care industry, Mr. Eremia argues persuasively that despite its occasional inadequacies, regular and consistent oversight and regulation by the government is imperative in order to effect meaningful and systemic improvements in the provision of quality care.

The Government's Role In Health Care Delivery, Linda Reneé Baker

Annals of Health Law and Life Sciences

As Secretary of Illinois' largest agency, the Department of Human Services, Secretary Baker provides a thorough overview of the role her agency plays in the ongoing health and welfare of the citizens of Illinois. Her contention that government should play a critical role in health care delivery is buttressed by the DHS' role as a funding agent, its contributions of staff and systems, and the direct role it plays in the pursuit of truly public health care. Secretary Baker effectively demonstrates the complexities and disparities that still exist in health care by discussing an inter-generational study of one poor family …

The Abcs And Ntbs Of Gmos: The Great European Union-United States Trade Debate - Do European Restrictions On The Trade Of Genetically Modified Organisms Violate Internaitonal Trade Law, Sarah Lively

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

The genetic engineering of agriculture has spurred a lively worldwide discussion, and the technology has found both enthusiastic fans and formidable foes. Specifically, the United States has signed on as a proponent of the genetic modification of agriculture. In fact, the United States has become the largest producer of genetically modified organisms ("GMOs") and is consequently the leading exporter of genetically modified goods. On the other side of this debate lies the European Community ("EC"). The European Community is much less enthusiastic about GMOs and effectively questions their presence in our environment and food products. The European Community has focused …

Nfl General Counsel Adolpho Birch Speaks On The Nfl's Drug Policy, Adolpho Birch, Journal Of Entertainment & Tech. Law Editor

Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law

Our standards are set in stone and frankly I think that's the best way to do it. The Commissioner obviously has discretion to alter the discipline, but it is not the type of discretion that is used lightly. It is better in our view to have a defined system with delineated consequences that occur from the use of a prohibited substance. For example, a positive test for a performance-enhancing substance nets a four-game suspension without pay. That is the rule for a first violation and everybody knows it. And when it happens to you, you will be treated the same …
