Monkey business for Worker's compensation claims A Connecticut police officer entered a gruesome scene while acting in the line of duty. A 200-pound chimp turned on its owner, and tore at the face and hands of the owner's friend. Officer Chiafari showed up in response to a 9-1-1 distress call. The bloody-toothed chimp lurched for Chiafari, who then fired his gun and brought the attack to an end. Unfortunately, the police officer continues to suffer Post Traumatic Stress from the incident. It effects his daily functioning, ability to perform at work, and social interaction. Due to his pain and suffering, Chiafari filed a worker's compensation claim. The City flatly denied the police officer's worker's comp claim within five days, insisting that it only covered injuries involving human assailants, not animals. The injured policeman continues to fight for his rights. He recently testified before the Labor and Public Employees Committee, endorsing a change to the law that would include serious injuries received on the job, due to life-threatening animals.

New York Doctors Discuss Defensive vs. Ideal Medicine

08.24.2008

What happens when doctors get worried about their patients suing them, from the very start of the relationship? The issue is complex. On the one hand, fear of lawsuits makes physicians more apprehensive, careful and aware of their actions and inactions. On the other hand, fear of lawsuits may make doctors too careful, and reluctant to aggressively pursue the best course of treatment. Take a look at this article about New York's Mount Kisco doctors, discussing both sides of the coin, and the implications. Thanks to Personal Injury Law News for catching the issue.
