Terese A. Mosher Beluris was quoted in the May issue of Healthcare Risk Management in an article entitled, "13 Hospital Workers Fired for Snooping in Britney Spears' Medical Records." The article discusses concerns associated with privacy breaches within the healthcare system. "The same mandates that require hospitals to store patients' files electronically in order to facilitate patient care also enable any person entitled to access a file to post it on MySpace in an instant," Ms. Beluris said. "Would Pentagon-level technology limit the risk? Perhaps," she added. "However, no hospital I know has a Pentagon-sized budget."

Terese A. Mosher-Beluris and J. Peter Rich were quoted extensively in the cover feature of the September issue of Managed Care Contracting & Reimbursement Advisor. Ms. Mosher-Beluris and Mr. Rich addressed how a provider can lessen the risk of unpaid claims when treating members through a provider organization. Ms. Mosher-Beluris discussed a case in which the Firm obtained a $2.6 million judgment for a hospital, after a health plan refused payment based on its contract with an intermediary organization to pay those claims. Mr. Rich explained the importance of a provider obtaining a direct relationship with a plan if the provider is to get a court or arbitrator to order a plan to pay it once the intermediary provider organization fails to pay. They both also discussed ways that critical provider-plan relationship could be established.
