“Given the attempt to recover bonus payments to AIG, can you envision a scenarios where CMS attempts to recover payments from physicians health that they retroactively deem too high? What if a new national standards board establishes a rate for hip replacements that is lower than what it is today? Similar situation? Not at all? I’d like to see a discussion on this.”JR wrote an interesting question.

I had the opportunity to work with David Blumenthal recently when I served on an expert panel for the health IT adoption studies. He has a deep understanding of applied health IT and, even more important, how clinicians interact with these systems in the real world. This is great news for everyone interested in advancing the use of health IT to improve quality, safety, and cost efficiency.

The body that administers the test has to straddle a delicate line, in granting extra time to a broadening definition of the disabled student versus maintaining the overall fairness and integrity of the high stakes test.
Despite the ruling, three of the four plaintiffs have gone on to medical school, with two scoring in the 70th percentile or higher.I suspect that this will become more of an issue in the coming years, as a greater proportion of the current generation of students have been diagnosed with ADD.
