Kronenberg vs. Henry Ford Health System, et al. addresses constitutionality of malpractice reform legislation.

In November 1994, a Wayne County Circuit Court judge rendered an opinion upholding the constitutionality of the 182-day pre-suit notice and waiting requirements under the Malpractice Reform Legislation which became effective April 1, 1994. The Court's opinion is well written and will lend support to other constitutional attacks taking place in other circuit courts. It is expected that the Kronenberg case will be appealed. MSMS legal counsel will monitor this and other cases contesting the constitutionality of the Malpractice Reform Legislation and keep MSMS members apprised.

Antitrust law applicable to managed care contracting.

Antitrust laws cannot be ignored by physicians on the basis that they are not fair, are too complicated or make no sense. The Justice Department and the FTC view independent practitioners as competitors. As such, organized actions by physicians relative to managed care contracting are carefully scrutinized for antitrust violations. A basic understanding of the antitrust laws is therefore essential.
