LIFENET/INTERNET and the health science librarian.

The Medical Library Center of New York, a cooperative library agency for the health sciences, developed a program to offer an electronic communications system (LIFENET) with access to the Internet for its members. Information on documentation and training as well as statistics on the subsequent use of the system and of the Internet are discussed in the article. Specific examples of how health science librarians are using the system include bibliographic verification, reference, research on integrated library systems, production of duplicate journal lists, and professional activities such as electronic mail and discussion groups (listservs).

Integration consternation. The IDS faces an uncertain future.

Many healthcare providers across the country are finding themselves in reactive mode: New York City is a case in point. After years of bureaucratic indolence and excess in which the city trailed the rest of the country in reform initiatives, managed care is now taking the entire state by storm. With the passage of the New York Healthcare Reform Act of 1996, the state is in the process of moving from a highly-regulated, prospective payment system to a competitive system of negotiated rates for non-Medicare payors of inpatient care.

Anatomy of an ADA case. Chatoff v. City of New York.

This article addresses plaintiff and defense strategies in the context of an ADA case and is intended to serve as a ready reference to employer's counsel when faced with ADA litigation. In an ADA case, it is essential that counsel humanize the employer by keeping the "Our Business Supports Diversity" theme before the trier of facts at all times. This theme should be accompanied by the proposition that plaintiff's demands are not reasonable because they impose an undue burden on the employer or a risk to the safety of the employee or others in the workplace. It is also crucial for defense counsel to become familiar with the plaintiff's attorney's strategic considerations. ADA litigation strategy is illustrated by reference to Chatoff v. City of New York, a landmark ADA case instituted on behalf of the approximately 200,000 hearing-impaired residents of the City of New York, demanding equal and direct access to Emergency 911 services.
