Nurse Practitioner's Bus Practice and Legal Guide.......2007-02-07
Excellent condition of book, speedy delivery, and a fantastic content within the book.
Must read, for Nurse Practitioners & students.......2005-10-21
Great book which provides definitions and state-by-state breakdowns of important concepts, such as collaboration, prescriptive authority and SCAs.
2nd edition.......2004-01-28
I found Carolyn Buppert's second edition of Business Practice and Legal Guide to be very helpful. The additional chapters are useful for my practice and for research on a state wide level. I would recommend this book to nurse practitioners and students of the profession. It is proving to be a valuable resource for improving NP practice in Alabama. Be sure to get the second edition (2003/2004)as the first was published in 1995.
Information is outdated.......2004-01-21
As a grad student interested in starting my own practice upon graduation, I found this book to be useless. It has been reprinted by another publishing company and its original copyright date is 1999. Between then and now - 2004 - a lot of things have changed. Therefore, I would recommend that anyone who requires current information should look elsewhere. This is a very expensive book as is not helpful at all!!!
Excellent resource for any nurse practitioner.......2002-11-09
I had the pleasure of reading this book while finishing my last year in nurse practitioner school.
Ms. Buppert is a master in defining how to negotiate business contracts.
I met the author at a nurse practioner conference in Nashville Tn and she was very down to earth and truly magnificent in her knowledge of laws affecting nurse practioners.
I highly recommend this book.

Great book, but out-of-date.......2007-05-28
I actually worked with Alex Bove on updating a book on estate planning, when I practiced law in Boston many years ago. I purchased this book back in 1996 (the date of the current edition), but since then the laws have changed several times, most notably in February 2006, with the enactment of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005. As a result of those changes, many of the examples and planning suggestions discussed in Bove's book no longer work. For example, all rules relating to gifting, penalty periods, look-back periods, "half-a-loaf" planning, and annuities, have been radically changed. Do not rely on the examples in the book!
That being said, his material on durable powers of attorney, trusts (other than the Convertible Trust, which no longer works), gift taxes, general eligibility requirements, and ethics of Medicaid planning, is still worth reading.
For an example of a book that incorporates all the latest changes in the law, together with case studies and numerous cutting edge planning ideas, take a look at How to Protect Your Family's Assets from Devastating Nursing Home Costs: Medicaid Secrets. It's pricey, but well worth it when you consider all the information and ideas packed into it!
Woefully out of date........2007-04-28
While I own this book (I bought it ten years ago) it is now very much out-of-date. The law of Medicaid is one that is constantly in flux, changing just about every year. Recent changes to Medicaid law have made every book on the subject of Medicaid published before January 2007 obsolete. While this book and its author, Mr. Bove provided a great overview of the Medicaid planning process and for many years was the go to book to learn about Medicaid and the nursing home, today it is woefully out-of-date. For an example of an up-to-date book with information for all 50 states see: The Medicaid Handbook 2007
Not Topical.......2006-11-11
The book fairly explains the complexities of Medicare. However, many changes have been made in Medicare since the date this publication was printed. The book should be updated to reflect the recent changes.
Worthless after Feb 8, 2006.......2006-08-24
Dear Worried Reader,
On February 8, 2006, President Bush signed a law called the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005. This law makes sweeping changes to the ability of seniors to transfer (gift) any assets to their children and grandchildren. Following the advice of any book written before that date can cause a catastrophic loss of Medicaid privileges when a senior citizen is most vulnerable..when they actually enter a nursing home. Do not use this book as a reliable guide to current law. elder law attorney Chicago, IL
Thanks to Mr. Bove.......2005-09-21
The information in this book is easy to understand and extremely valuable. It saved my family thousands of dollars by helping me get Medicaid for my father.

Well written and a great source of information!.......1997-11-24
The layout and format of each chapter is outstanding. The author writes so well that the subject matter flows with excellent examples and additional research material at the end of each chapter. Should be used in every nursing school in the country... this is important stuff.

Book Description
The medical-legal arena covers the dynamic interactions between law and medicine, in particular the regulation and utilization of medicine by law. There remain many terms and concepts that are still undefined, hazily defined, confusingly defined, or defined with a significant double meaning. Then there are those commonly used but unnamed methods that are clumsy to explain. The Concise Dictionary of Medical-Legal Terms: A General Guide to Interpretation and Usage provides an easy-to-use reference to the common words and phrases used in medicine and law. Like oil and water, the methods of thinking in law and medicine do not always mix well. This dictionary defines legal terms in their medical context as well as medical terms in their legal context. If you are a physician required to appear in court or to write medical reports, this dictionary guides you through the labyrinth of legal terms as they pertain to medicine. If you are a lawyer and you need to understand medical conditions and injuries, the dictionary provides the clear, concise definitions that add clarity to the settlement of problems that arise in courts. An invaluable resource, The Concise Dictionary of Medical-Legal Terms: A General Guide to Interpretation and Usage brings together the philosophies, principles, causes and effects, approaches, and other fundamentals that seem to be relatively stable in medical-legal spheres. Written by a doctor with 25 years experience in medical-legal spheres and a life-long dedication to terminology, this dictionary is essential for the office, surgery, and library.

Dr. Shulgin releases a book used by both the DEA to illicit users........2007-08-21
I bought this book from Ronin Publishing when it first came out, and was a bit miffed to pay the list price of $59.95. Now that it is going for as much as $500 per copy, I clearly don't feel so bad.
More to the point, this book is indespensible for researchers, drug counselors, drug addicts, DEA personnel, and anyone interested in how the DEA classifies Schedule I-V drugs.
Even more impressive are the appendices which range from the Analogue Enforcement Act to Federal Sentencing Guidlines. Imagine bringing this book into court with you and having a reduced sentence or no sentence because of Sasha's research. Talk about pissing off your local ignorant DA!
Highly, highly recommended. If you've been looking for this kind of information, try and find an Amazon 2nd teir vendor who'll let it go for around $150. Money well spent.
