Surprise Billing Handbook: A Guide for Lawyers and Providers

Rivet J: Surprise Billing Handbook

Surprise Billing Handbook

A Guide for Lawyers and Providers

This book provides a timely and much-needed critical legal review of children's participation in healthcare that goes beyond merely documenting the extent and scope of participation, and explores the importance, definition of, and barriers to their meaningful participation. Addressing a gap in the literature, the book uses a combination of empirical data, childhood and participatory theory, and legal analysis to study the participation of children and young people in the medical context from a child's rights perspective. Centring the unheard and underrepresented lived experiences of recent and past child patients, and doctors, the book uses Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis, a methodology traditionally used in psychology, to provide a refreshing and unique exploration of children's participation in their healthcare. The book explores to what extent national law and international non-binding conventions have created a 'right' to participation, studies the application of national law in clinical practice asking whether the law facilitates meaningful participation, and analyses the interaction between law and quasi-legal regulations. The book will be useful for academics, children's activists, and legal and clinical practitioners.

Medical Decision-Making with Children and Young People

Building a New Legal Framework

Foetal Tissue Governance

For the last thirty years, Eric Francis has covered crime in Vermont, the state with, according to the statistics, the lowest crime rate in the nation. But statistics are statistics and people are people, and Eric, who calls himself the last of the living dinosaurs, is out there day after day reporting on robberies, assaults, car accidents, and the rising tide of drug overdoses due to fentanyl. It's far from quiet in the safest state in the US. Every day brings something new and more often than not strange (in a Vermont way). As recently as six years ago, there would have been other reporters and photographers covering these stories. Now, in the Upper Valley of Vermont and New Hampshire, Eric is the only local journalist on the scene, any scene. This book chronicles the life and times of one of the very last people paying attention to what's really going on in a rural New England that only seems tranquil... Dispatches from individual lives, as they happen: Each short book originates in short confidences recorded by individuals during borrowed moments from their interesting lives. Set amidst some of our most pressing contemporary predicaments and edited by award-winning writers Peter Orner and Laura Lampton Scott, Dispatches captures some of the highs and lows of daily human endurance.

The Life and Days of Eric Francis (Dispatches #3)

Covering Crime in the Safest State in the Nation

Speech has become an increasingly central feature of international criminal proceedings, particularly in cases involving senior political or military leaders. The PJI Guidelines are grounded in extensive jurisprudence, empirical research, and scholarly analysis, drawing on decisions from international courts and tribunals as well as broader interdisciplinary insights. Anchored on the fundamental right to freedom of expression, the Guidelines conveys guidelines for securing criminal accountability. In doing so, the book addresses cutting edge issues including disinformation, interpretation, social media, and AI propagated inflammatory and hateful speech, among other topics. It proposes 10 Key Guidelines, including an amendment to Article 25(3)(e) to criminalise intentional, direct and public incitement to any atrocity crime under the Rome Statute. Contributors are: Katharina Braun, Juan Manuel Klein, Damla Yasemin Ipek, and Manuel J. Ventura.

Speech Crimes in the Digital Era

Choosing tenants, raising the rent, returning deposits, and maintaining rental property--these are just a few of the things landlords do that are strictly regulated by California law. To avoid problems and hefty legal fees, rental property owners and managers need to know and comply with federal, state, and local rules, and use the proper legal forms. Fortunately, everything you need is in this book. Rent control and eviction protections are blossoming throughout California; alongside statewide protections, even small municipalities are enacting local ordinances that affect rent, terminations, and notices. This book contains a unique rent control chart that explains key provisions and gives information on how to learn more. No California landlord can afford to do business without checking for local ordinances and following them.

Rights & Responsibilities

The California Landlord's Law Book

This innovative work offers a new perspective on the established tort of misuse of private information, contending that English law has evolved a sophisticated mechanism for the protection of privacy and the protection of the economic value in private information. Although information generally is not property, private information now appears to be treated by English law as a form of property, giving the owner of the information rights of exclusion, exploitation and transfer. Balancing philosophical discussion of the fundamentals with a detailed analysis of the practical difficulties of "propertising" information, the book suggests that English law has evolved a powerful tool for the protection of privacy in this data-driven world.

Privacy as Property

For much of the past century, with the U.S. considered the world leader in innovation, its economic growth based on continued creative contributions from its citizens was a given. But this privileged position is under threat. In recent years, the U.S. has lagged behind other countries on several innovation measures, and including an ability to compete against international cities for venture-capital backed startups and creative talent. The arrival of AI only adds urgency to the questions of whether the U.S. will continue to be an innovation leader, and whether that leadership will advance human flourishing. &nbsp;&nbsp;The Creativity Tax draws on neuroscience, psychology, economics, law, and public policy to make the case that reducing poverty and inequality through a federal guaranteed income is the missing key to unlocking our collective creative potential and expanding our innovative capacity. It explains how policy inaction in addressing poverty and inequality is taxing our innovative capacities in ways that threaten our continued ability to produce high quality, socially beneficial innovation. The book also reveals how these questions of innovation leadership are deeply entwined with questions of who gets to innovate in this country and what kinds of innovation is produced—innovation for innovation's sake that benefits a few, or truly useful innovation that advances human flourishing. &nbsp;&nbsp;Synthesizing a broad range of scholarship, Stephanie Plamondon makes a novel argument for addressing poverty and inequality, not only as a matter of social welfare policy, but also for our nation's continued progress as an innovation leader.

How Poverty and Inequality Silence Innovation, and How to Fix It

The Creativity Tax

Hart Studies in Private Law

This ambitious and important book explores the new concept of the doctor-patient relationship, told from the private law perspective. The doctor-patient relationship differs from others in negligence law. Doctors are required to take positive action and, therefore, can be held liable for omissions. However, because actionable damage is almost exclusively confined to physical injury, the significance of a doctor's liability for failing to confer a benefit has gotten lost along the way. This aspect of the doctor's positive duty is overlooked in both the case law and the literature - and, this book identifies it as the principal barrier to protecting interests other than bodily integrity in medical negligence law. The book sets out a novel theoretical framework in which the reconceptualised doctor's 'positive duty to take care' of a patient's interests justifies an expanded concept of actionable damage beyond physical injury - ensuring that the reasons for requiring doctors to act positively are carried through to the damage enquiry. The book identifies that the leading cases causing challenges to coherency in medical negligence are those involving patient choice: Rees v Darlington Memorial Hospital, McFarlane v Tayside Health Board, Meadows v Khan, ACB v Thomson Medical Pte Ltd, Chester v Afshar, Montgomery v Lanarkshire Health Board, Gregg v Scott, and Philp v Ryan. Rather than treating patient autonomy as a source of doctrinal difficulty, this book offers a new way of thinking about the doctor-patient relationship to accommodate autonomy related interests and real world effects of medical negligence separate from physical injury. The theoretical account of the doctor's positive duty and its consequences for actionable damage reveals what is distinctive about the doctor-patient relationship amongst other relationships giving rise to liability for omissions. It suggests how novel harms in medical negligence might be accommodated - including the potential for tort law in this area to reflect fundamental values in constitutional rights in Ireland and ECHR rights in the UK, and how the non-pecuniary losses could be quantified and compensated. While common law of Ireland and the UK takes centre stage, the analysis draws on other common law jurisdictions and on Irish constitutional law.
