Regulating Physician Investment And Referral Behavior In The Competitive Health Care Marketplace Of The '90s—An Argument For Decentralization, Kimberly A. King Jul 1990

Regulating Physician Investment And Referral Behavior In The Competitive Health Care Marketplace Of The '90s—An Argument For Decentralization, Kimberly A. King

Washington Law Review

Congress regulates the investment and referral practices of physicians through the federal Anti-Fraud and Abuse statute. The Anti-Fraud and Abuse statute, however, limits the ability of physicians to adapt their investment and referral practices to an increasingly competitive health care industry. In order to restrict fraudulent practices without restricting competition, the authority to regulate physician investment and referral practices should be returned to the states, who can recognize and exempt beneficial competitive practices from the reach of the applicable state statutes.


The Law And Economics Of Organ Procurement, Keith N. Hylton Jul 1990

The Law And Economics Of Organ Procurement, Keith N. Hylton

Faculty Scholarship

This paper presents an economic analysis of the organ procurement system in the U.S. and examines proposals to alleviate the shortage of transplantable organs. The paper's principal conclusions are: (1) Although non-market solutions deserve the highest priority, demand increases fueled by improvements in transplant technology will probably make some market-based solution necessary in the future. (2) Quality deterioration and coercion will not necessarily be worrisome problems under a market-based procurement system.

Florida Durable Power Of Attorney Law: The Need For Reform, Robert Craig Waters Apr 1990

Florida Durable Power Of Attorney Law: The Need For Reform, Robert Craig Waters

Florida State University Law Review

The durable power of attorney provides a method of planning for illness or incapacity that is less expensive and restrictive than legal guardianship. Yet current Florida law appears to render durable powers either unenforceable or inaccessible to most of the state's population. In this Article, the author provides a history of the durable power, describes the shortcomings of current Florida law, and proposes broad reform.

Proceedings Of The Inaugural Conference Of The Law & (And) Public Policy Program: An Introduction And Summary, Alan C. Weinstein Jan 1990

Proceedings Of The Inaugural Conference Of The Law & (And) Public Policy Program: An Introduction And Summary, Alan C. Weinstein

Journal of Law and Health

As its title suggests, this Conference focuses on the health insurance problems of Ohioans and the public and private initiatives that seek solutions to that problem. Despite this focus on Ohio, the Conference proceedings are not overly parochial, but often examine the experience of other states and other societies to gain insights into Ohio's situation. Thus, these proceedings provide the reader with both a general consideration of the health insurance problem and a deeper exploration of one state's effort to address that problem.

Defining The Problem And Searching For Solutions: Insurers, Employers, And State Government, Charles D. Weller, Powell Woods, John Polk, Kenneth F. Seminatore

Journal of Law and Health

Panel discussion: Some solutions to the uninsured problem happening right here in Cleveland. The Health Policy Coalition is a group which presents health insurance reform ideas to Congress. Charles Weller talked about the Coalition. Powell Woods described the Cleveland Health Quality Choice Program as follows: "Cleveland Health Quality Choice is based upon the principle that if we figure out a way to reward high quality and cost efficiency as the twin lynch pins of reimbursement in our health purchasing system, we can drive both quality and efficiency gains in the system which can help produce savings which will in turn …


Alternative Approaches At The Federal And State Level, E. Richard Brown, Mary Rose Oakar, Randall Bovbjerg Jan 1990

Alternative Approaches At The Federal And State Level, E. Richard Brown, Mary Rose Oakar, Randall Bovbjerg

Journal of Law and Health

The reason that the discussions and positions that you heard this morning are no longer being voiced so widely in California is because conditions have continued to deteriorate there rather dramatically. Like the rest of the country, we have a large uninsured population, but the percentage of our uninsured population is larger than the national average as a percentage of the non-elderly population. In the U.S. it's about eighteen percent; in California, it's over twenty-one percent. That means more than five million uninsured people.


Pregnancy, Drugs, And The Perils Of Prosecution, Wendy K. Mariner, Leonard H. Glantz, George J. Annas Jan 1990

Pregnancy, Drugs, And The Perils Of Prosecution, Wendy K. Mariner, Leonard H. Glantz, George J. Annas

Faculty Scholarship

In the war on drugs an offensive has been launched against pregnant women who use drugs. Over the past four years, prosecuting attorneys have been indicting women who use drugs while pregnant. In South Carolina alone, eighteen women who allegedly took drugs during pregnancy were indicted last summer for criminal neglect of a child or distribution of drugs to a minor.' In the only successful prosecution so far, Jennifer Johnson was convicted in Florida for delivering illegal drugs to a minor via the umbilical cord in the moment after her child was born and before the cord was clamped.2 …

Nancy Cruzan And The Right To Die, George J. Annas

Faculty Scholarship

[...]the majority improperly implied that continued existence and treatment in a persistent vegetative state is either beneficial or neutral, whereas in fact "an erroneous decision not to terminate life-support robs a patient of the very qualities protected by the right to avoid unwanted medical treatment... [a] degraded existence is perpetuated; his family's suffering is protracted; the memory he leaves behind becomes more and more distorted.5 " Finally, Justice Brennan argued that the Missouri rules are simply out of touch with reality; people do not write elaborate documents about all the possible ways they might die and the various interventions doctors …
