Cambridge University Press Unraveled Obamacare Religious Liberty and Executive Power
Book SynopsisSix years after its enactment, Obamacare remains one of the most controversial, divisive, and enduring political issues in America. In this much-anticipated follow-up to his critically acclaimed Unprecedented: The Constitutional Challenge to Obamacare (2013), Josh Blackman argues that, to implement the law, President Obama has broken promises about cancelled insurance policies, exceeded the traditional bounds of executive power, and infringed on religious liberty. At the same time, conservative opponents have stopped at nothing to unravel Obamacare, including a three-week government shutdown, four Supreme Court cases, and fifty repeal votes. This legal thriller provides the definitive account of the battle to stop Obamacare from being 'woven into the fabric of America'. Unraveled is essential reading to understand the future of the Affordable Care Act in America's gridlocked government in 2016, and beyond.Trade Review'Obamacare has remarkably, if perversely, made American political discourse more interesting. It has stimulated braided debates about the proper scope and actual competence of government, about the role of the judiciary in supervising democratic processes, and about how religious liberty becomes a casualty of 'comprehensive' social legislation enlarging the entitlement state. Josh Blackman, who has been immersed in all this as a scholar and participant, gives readers an invaluable inside tour of an ongoing controversy.' George F. Will, newspaper columnist and political commentator'Josh Blackman has written a thorough and engaging account of the political and legal issues surrounding Obamacare. This book is a must-read for all who are interested in the history of the Obama presidency and especially of its most important legislative accomplishment. Blackman presents the conservative perspective but he is even-handed, and all, including those (like me) who disagree with him, will learn a great deal from reading this book.' Erwin Chemerinsky, University of California, Irvine School of Law'Health care involves some of the most personal and - to many people - sacred and spiritually significant issues of life and death. So it is no surprise that an attempt by government to standardize health care coverage for all Americans would raise a host of issues of conscience, choice, and conviction. Josh Blackman's new book Unraveled chronicles the legal struggles over these issues in a fair, complete, and immensely readable narrative. Three things are certain: death, taxes, and that these conflicts are far from over. This book will help us all to understand the stakes and the arguments.' Michael W. McConnell, Stanford University Law School, California'Even-keeled and exhaustive, Blackman's Unraveled offers the consummate insider's take on the titanic legal struggles at the Supreme Court over the future of health reform. It is an indispensable resource and a gripping read.' Nicholas Bagley, University of Michigan Law School'Josh Blackman continues to bring a gimlet eye to the legal controversies surrounding the Affordable Care Act. He combines a careful, even meticulous attention to detail with a grasp of the important issues at stake. Even people who paid close attention to the debate will find much to learn from Unraveled.' Ramesh Ponnuru, senior editor, National Review'Blackman argues that to implement 'Obamacare,' President Obama has broken promises about cancelled insurance policies, exceeded the traditional bounds of executive power, and infringed on religious liberty.'

Cambridge University Press From Courtroom to Clinic
Book SynopsisWhy do present-day mental health professionals practice the way that they do? Over the past fifty years, a number of landmark court holdings have changed such basic principles as what material is confidential, how civil commitment and involuntary treatment are conducted, and when a therapist has a duty to protect the public from a dangerous patient. Unlike most legal texts, this volume explores these complex principles through the human stories of the litigants involved.Trade Review'This outstanding book reveals the personal stories behind the landmark cases that impact current psychiatric practice. The stories and analysis will help mental health professionals understand the background and rationale for the legal principles and laws that affect us and our patients.

Cambridge University Press Transparency in Health and Health Care in the United States
Book SynopsisTransparency is a concept that is becoming increasingly lauded as a solution to a host of problems in the American health care system. Transparency initiatives show great promise, including empowering patients and other stakeholders to make more efficient decisions, improve resource allocation, and better regulate the health care industry. Nevertheless, transparency is not a cure-all for the problems facing the modern health care system. The authors of this volume present a nuanced view of transparency, exploring ways in which transparency has succeeded and ways in which transparency initiatives have room for improvement. Working at the intersection of law, medicine, ethics, and business, the book goes beyond the buzzwords to the heart of transparency''s transformative potential, while interrogating its obstacles and downsides. It should be read by anyone looking for a better understanding of transparency in the health care context.Table of ContentsIntroduction Carmel Shachar, I.

Cambridge University Press Personalised Medicine Individual Choice and the Common Good
Book SynopsisHippocrates famously advised doctors ''it is far more important to know what person the disease has than what disease the person has''. Yet 2,500 years later, ''personalised medicine'', based on individual genetic profiling and the achievements of genomic research, claims to be revolutionary. In this book, experts from a wide range of disciplines critically examine this claim. They expand the discussion of personalised medicine beyond its usual scope to include many other highly topical issues, including: human nuclear genome transfer (''three-parent IVF''), stem cell-derived gametes, private umbilical cord blood banking, international trade in human organs, biobanks such as the US Precision Medicine Initiative, direct-to-consumer genetic testing, health and fitness self-monitoring. Although these technologies often prioritise individual choice, the original ideal of genomic research saw the human genome as ''the common heritage of humanity''. The authors question whether personalised medicine actually threatens this conception of the common good.Trade Review'This volume illuminates the fundamental tension between the individualistic promises of personalized medicine and the demands of social justice. Moreover, it follows this moral fault-line well beyond the territory of applied human genomics, to show how it runs through biomedical practices ranging from infertility treatments, umbilical cord blood banking, and organ transplantion, all the way to how we care for people with Alzheimer Disease and use personal fitness apps to care for ourselves. In the process the volume nicely illustrates why applied genomics cannot expect to outrun this tension by reinventing itself as a 'precision' approach to resolving public health inequities. By demonstrating the ubiquity of the 'me/we' tension in the ways our society thinks about and pursues health, the book challenges the reader to consider personalized medicine and 'precision healthcare' as exemplars of rather than alternatives to modern biomedicine's conventional set of ethical commitments.' Eric Thomas Juengst, University of North Carolina School of Medicine'This important book Personalised Medicine, Individual Choice and the Common Good intervenes in one of the most important debates of our time - and that is access to health care. This is a global matter and it touches virtually every area of human need and desire from organ transplantation to assisted reproduction. This book confronts both our desires and demands and explores the costs of giving the people what they want.' Michele Goodwin, University of California'This rich collection of essays is a tribute to the generative powers and explanatory scope that co-editor Donna Dickenson's 'Me Medicine versus We Medicine' framework provides. The volume's authors and editors offer trenchant insights into the social, cultural, and market dynamics that underlie the hypertrophy of practices and products shaped by 'Me Medicine', piercing inflated promises and carefully mapping the repercussions for individual patients and for our commitments to public health. Not least, they also chart a hopeful course for future efforts to better balance individual choice and the common good.' Marcy Darnovsky, Center for Genetics and Society'The contributors to this volume largely offer a counter-narrative to the hype [about personalized medicine]. Assessing personalized medicine from legal, public health, human rights, feminist, technological, ethical, economic, political, and philosophical perspectives, the authors unpack its benefits and potential harms. In doing so, most of them deploy to good effect an incisive heuristic advanced several years ago by Donna Dickenson that divides health research and care into two approaches dubbed 'We Medicine' and 'Me Medicine.'' Gina Maranto, Biopolitical Times'The multidisciplinary perspectives offered in this book will make it of interest to a variety of audiences, especially bioethics, law, and philosophy students and academics. It will also be of interest to other scholars studying the intersection of medicine, society, and politics, such as political scientists and communications experts.'

Nova Science Publishers Inc Health Insurance: Requirements, Challenges, and
Book SynopsisSince 1 January 2014, most individuals have had to maintain health insurance coverage or pay a penalty for noncompliance implemented through the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). To comply with this individual mandate, individuals need to maintain minimum essential coverage, which includes most types of public and private health insurance coverage. A majority of Americans have health insurance from the private health insurance (PHI) market. Health plans sold in the PHI market must comply with requirements at both the state and federal levels; such requirements often are referred to as market reforms. During the Obama Administration, the two federal agencies primarily responsible for administering the private health insurance provisions in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) -- the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) within the Treasury Department -- took a series of actions to delay, extend, or otherwise modify the laws implementation.

Nova Science Publishers Inc U.S. Drug Supply, Investigational Drugs and
Book SynopsisChapter 1 reports on the U.S. drug supply and the complex way it is interwoven with multiple stakeholders involved in each step of the process. When investigational drugs show promise for treating serious or life-threatening diseases, patients are often interested in obtaining access to them. Congress included a provision in the FDA Reauthorization Act of 2017 for GAO to review actions taken to facilitate access to these drugs. Chapter 2 describes (1) actions FDA and drug manufacturers have taken to broaden eligibility criteria for clinical trials, (2) actions FDA has taken to facilitate access to investigational drugs outside of clinical trials, and (3) information drug manufacturers have communicated to patients and physicians about access to investigational drugs outside of clinical trials. Chapter 3 reports on requiring e-prescriptions for coverage under part D of the Medicare program for prescription drugs that are controlled substances.

Book SynopsisHow to identify and see through deceptive and unethical health marketing practices Health scams come in all shapes and sizes-from the suppression of side-effects from prescription drugs to the unproven benefits of 'traditional' health practices-taking advantage of the human tendency to assume good intentions in others. So how do we avoid being deceived? Professor of Nursing, Bernie Garrett explores real-world examples of medical malpractice, pseudo and deceptive health science, dietary and celebrity health fads, deception in alternative medicine and problems with current healthcare regulation, ending with a simple health-scam detection kit.

Oxford University Press, USA The Law and Ethics of Medicine
Book SynopsisThe Law and Ethics of Medicine: Essays on the Inviolability of Human Life explains the principle of the inviolability of human life and its continuing relevance to English law governing aspects of medical practice at the beginning and end of life.The book shows that the principle, though widely recognized as an historic and foundational principle of the common law, has been misunderstood in the legal academy, at the Bar and on the Bench. Part I of the book identifies the confusion and clarifies the principle, distinguishing it from ''vitalism'' on the one hand and a ''qualitative'' evaluation of human life on the other. Part II addresses legal aspects of the beginning of life, including the history of the law against abortion and its relevance to the ongoing abortion debate in the US; the law relating to the ''morning after'' pill; and the legal status of the human embryo in vitro. Part III addresses legal aspects of the end of life, including the euthanasia debate; the withdrawal of tube-feeding from patients in a ''persistent vegetative state''; and the duty to provide palliative treatment.This unique collection of essays offers a much-needed clarification of a cardinal legal and ethical principle and should be of interest to lawyers, bioethicists, and healthcare professionals (whether they subscribe to the principle or not) in all common law jurisdictions and beyond.Trade ReviewJohn Keowns excellent book The Law and Ethics of Medicine is primarily the work of a lawyer and is written with lawyers and judges in mind; yet few books on the law of medicine are as conversant in important topics of contemporary ethics, especially questions of double effect, the nature of the human act, and the value of human life. * Christopher Tolle fsen, Journal of Moral Philosophy *If you only have one book on your shelf about medical law, this should be it. * Christopher Kaczor, The Public Discourse *[Keown's] attention to detail and clarity of thought are admirable, but he writes in a moderate and reasoned tone and in a manner easily understood whether you are a health care professional, lawyer, politician or just an interested member of the public. The Law and Ethics of Medicine is no exception and is recommended to anyone involved in the discussions about physician-assisted death and perhaps to those thinking about better strategies for advancing palliative care. * Roger Woodruff, IAHPC News *This recent volume by John Keown is a bijou of consistency and rationality. Based on the study of numerous legal documents and cases, it fuses passion with rigor, depth with simplicity, complexity with clarity....Keown offers to his readers an excellent tool and resource to think in-depth about one of th emost significant issues of nowadays: the value of human life. * Marina Casini, Medicine, Health Care & Philosophy *[A] helpful resource. The Law and Ethics of Medicine... is not designed primarily to persuade, but rather to clarify. Keown's project is to clear away obstructions that have gathered around the keystone principle of the inviolability of human life, so that the thing itself comes into view. In this, Keown succeeds. * Adam J MacLeod, Adelaide Law Review *Table of ContentsPART I: (MIS)UNDERSTANDING THE INVIOLABILITY OF LIFE ; 1.
