New York's highest court of appeals has held that no-fault insurers cannot deny no-fault benefits where they unilaterally determine that a provider has committed misconduct based upon alleged fraudulent conduct. The Court held that this authority belongs solely to state regulators, specifically New York's Board of Regents, which oversees professional licensing and discipline. This follows a similar recent ruling in Florida reported in this publication.
Cleveland College Master's Program in Health Promotion Approved
"Gaining approval from the Department of Education is exciting news," said Dr. Karen Doyle, MSHP program director. "Everyone at the college looks forward to welcoming the first class of MSHP students and to the launch of this innovative program."
The 36-credit-hour program, offered through Cleveland College of Graduate Studies on the Kansas City campus, is a distinct discipline that fits naturally within the institution. The college also offers the Doctor of Chiropractic degree, a Bachelor of Science in Human Biology, and pre-professional programs that accelerate health care careers.
The MSHP program, which is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and approved by the Kansas Board of Regents, is carefully designed to develop leaders in the vital and growing health promotion industry. The inaugural class will enroll in September 2010. The college will host a MSHP open house on June 17. For more information, visit www.cleveland.edu or call 800-467-2252.
