Setting New Jersey Hospital Rates: A Regulatory System Under Stress, Bruce Siegel, M.D., M.P.H., Anne Weiss, M.P.P., Diane Lynch, J.D., M.S.
Seattle University Law Review
This Article reviews the history of hospital rate setting in New Jersey, emphasizing the system's evolution in response to newly perceived problems and changing political forces. The system experienced some early success in controlling cost growth and demonstrating new techniques of hospital rate setting. In later years, rate setting in New Jersey has been less successful at confronting a new federal role and the growing problem of health care access. The problems faced by New Jersey hold lessons for both the federal government as it pursues cost containment and the other states who either operate rate regulation systems or contemplate …
How Good A Samaritan? Federal Income Tax Exemption For Charitable Hospitals Reconsidered, James B. Simpson, Sarah D. Strum
How Good A Samaritan? Federal Income Tax Exemption For Charitable Hospitals Reconsidered, James B. Simpson, Sarah D. Strum
Seattle University Law Review
Do contemporary charitable hospitals provide a sufficient community benefit to justify the loss of government revenue caused by their tax exemption? Focusing particularly on federal income tax exemption and on the community benefit derived from the provision of services to persons unable to pay, this Article argues that not all hospitals do. Accordingly, the authors recommend that the Internal Revenue Service issue a Revenue Ruling revising the current standards for federal income tax exemption to encourage charitable hospitals to clearly and explicitly identify and respond to health care needs, including the needs of persons unable to pay, in their local …

Hospital-Medical Staff Relations In The Face Of Shifting Institutional Business Strategies: A Legal Analysis, John D. Blum
Hospital-Medical Staff Relations In The Face Of Shifting Institutional Business Strategies: A Legal Analysis, John D. Blum
Seattle University Law Review
This Article will explore, from a legal perspective, the dynamics of the changing relationships between hospitals and their medical staffs. Specifically, the Article will discuss hospital strategies for maximizing the efficiency of their medical staff operations. In this regard, the discussion will encompass two general areas: (1) the use of agreements and policies that restrict access to medical staff membership; and, (2) the development of economic criteria to assess physicians for appointment and reappointment to medical staffs. Both of these general areas of discussion entail significant legal issues that have never been extensively explored and hold the potential to reshape …
In Re Grant: Where Does Washington Stand On Artificial Nutrition And Hydration?, Stephen P. Vanderhoef
In Re Grant: Where Does Washington Stand On Artificial Nutrition And Hydration?, Stephen P. Vanderhoef
Seattle University Law Review
The Washington Supreme Court in In re Grantsought to determine whether life sustaining treatment could be legally withheld from a terminally ill, non-comatose, incompetent individual. In its December 1987 slip opinion, a majority of the court expanded on its previous decisions empowering third parties, including guardians, families, and physicians, to withhold and withdraw life sustaining treatment from incompetent individuals. This was accomplished by characterizing artificial nutrition and hydration as removable, life sustaining medical treatment. The court also gave third parties the power to remove artificial nutrition and hydration before the incompetent individual in question slips into a coma or …
Substituted Judgment And The Right To Refuse Shock Treatment In Washington: In Re Schuoler, Gregory S. Marshall
Substituted Judgment And The Right To Refuse Shock Treatment In Washington: In Re Schuoler, Gregory S. Marshall
Seattle University Law Review
This Note will first analyze and evaluate two competing decision-making models established in other jurisdictions. The Note will then apply that analysis to Schuoler and critically evaluate that decision. The Note will conclude that while the Washington court follows the more appropriate judicial substituted judgment model, its poor articulation of that model may defeat the purpose of the decision: to protect a mental patient's right to refuse ECT.
