Where Is Health Law Going?: Follow The Money, Robert L. Schwartz Jan 2004

Where Is Health Law Going?: Follow The Money, Robert L. Schwartz

Faculty Scholarship

Where has health law come from? Where will it be going? To follow the development of this discipline, follow the money. Where substantial financial interests entered the health care enterprise, lawyers have been sure to follow--or, sometimes, to lead. Where we can predict there will be concentrations of money, we can predict there will be concentrations of lawyers, and, not too far behind, legal academics. The very birth of "health law" (or, at least, its transformation out of "medical law") was a consequence of a newly developing medical economy. Since the term "Health Law" was first used as a casebook …

Steering And Rowing In Health Care: The Devolution Option?, Colleen Flood, Joanna Erdman, Duncan Sinclair

Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press

Publicly funded health care systems are often the subject of heated policy debates. All too often (particularly in Canada), these debates focus on the prohibitive costs, the resultant taxation levels, and the questionable efficiency and outcomes associated with a publicly funded system. Moreover, the institutionalization of the system and the entrenchment of its many stakeholders make effecting change particularly difficult. In this article, the authors begin with an assessment of the drawbacks of the Canadian health care system in the federal-provincial context and its resulting gaps in governance (steering), in management (rowing), and in overall accountability (apart from that offered …

During the past two decades, the United States has experienced dramatic developments in the area of biomedical research. Expanding budgets, augmented computer capabilities, and the Human Genome Project have all significantly enhanced research capabilities. Consequently, the number of research projects conducted in this country is ever growing, and the enrollment of an adequate number of human subjects is becoming an increasingly challenging task.

Clinical research involving human participants is governed by federal regulations that have been promulgated by the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In light of the proliferation of medical …

Scholarly Works

On January 14, 1998 the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the use of a product previously marketed as Excedrin Extra Strength® for use in treating migraine headaches. As part of the approval for the new use of the product, FDA required the pharmaceutical manufacturer of Excedrin®, Bristol-Myers Squibb, to relabel and repackage the product.

Both over-the-counter (OTC) products contain the same active ingredients: 250 milligrams of acetaminophen, 250 milligrams of aspirin, and sixty-five milligrams of caffeine. Many …

Part III (D) looks at the tort law basis for a general duty of physicians to disclose medical information, the specific duty of clinical physicians to disclose the …
