Fee-for-Service Payment – An Evil Practice that Must be Stamped Out?
Co-opting physicians to regulate Fee-for-Service (FFS) payment is more feasible and simpler to administer than capitation, Diagnosis-Related Groups (DRGs) and pay-for-performance.

Adherence to these regulations must be strictly audited in order to c...
متن کاملA Category Test that Cannot be Manipulated∗
In Dekel and Feinberg (2004) we suggested a test for discovering whether a potential expert is informed of the distribution of a stochastic process. This category test requires predicting a “small”– category I – set of outcomes. In this paper we show that under the continuum hypothesis there is a category test that cannot be manipulated, i.e. such that no matter how the potential expert randomi...
متن کاملRuled out ? ⋆
A four generation supersymmetric model is proposed, in which the Tevatron “top-quark” events are reinterpreted as the production of t′ which decays dominantly to bW. In this model, mt ≃ mW , and t → t̃χ̃01, with t̃ → cχ̃01. This decay chain, which rarely produces a hard isolated lepton, would have been missed in all previous top quark searches. A narrow region of the model parameter space exists wh...
