Increasingly, comprehensive physician compensation planning has become necessary for many practices. In the future, such planning will be commonplace within private group practices. Formerly, most group practices were small, including perhaps two or three physicians. Typically, they were of like mind and similar age. Their skills, goals, and work ethics were similar. They considered themselves entrepreneurs and strove to ...

Here are three popular benefits that present a legal minefield for benefits managers — and ways companies can offer them without fear of repercussions. 1. Wellness programs and the ADA While every employer wants to promote healthier lifestyles for its employees, some wellness initiatives run afoul of the Americans with Disabilities Act — if the initiatives are constructed in a manner that makes it more difficult for certain employees to participate.

As the editor’s opinion in this matter is contrary to that of most people I have talked to, I was surprised by the article. Indeed, Ms. Betancourt may be the most disliked politician in Colombia today, so I thought it was pretty ballsy to write an op-ed piece defending her position. Our editor must be commended for looking at the other side of this matter. Alas, I have to disagree with him. Ms. Betancourt does not have a legal right to compensation from the Colombian government. There are two important reasons why this is so. First, Ms. Betancourt is directing her claim at the wrong target, as the state is not to ...

WASHINGTON, Jul 19 (IPS) - While speculation over a possible Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear facilities intensifies, at least one influential analyst here is calling on Washington to focus more on the likelihood of a new war breaking out between Israel and Lebanon's Hezbollah militia and how to prevent or contain it. In his eight-page ‘Contingency Planning Memorandum' released last week by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), U.S. Ambassador Daniel Kurtzer (ret.) argued that Israel was more likely than Hezbollah to initiative hostilities and that it could ”also use a conflict with Hezbollah as the ...

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Tiger
Woods, who usually skirts controversy, generated plenty of bad press when he
commented about his play at the Masters. Tiger said his tee-to-green play was
fine. However, he felt, when he got to the greens he became "spastic." By
choosing that word, he meant to convey that his putting during the tournament
was shaky, unreliable, and out of control. Immediately, individuals who cope with that malady, and their relatives, accused
Woods of being thoughtless and insensitive. That incident started me thinking about the common expressions we use daily
which could become incendiary among certain groups: "a basket ...
I am independently planning a charity event in May for three different charities. Our goal is to raise $100,000 mostly from donations online. I have a few concerns and questions about logistics... specifically regarding collecting the money then distributing it to our charities without causing any tax issues since the money will first be coming to me so I can then distribute. Because the money is being distributed to three charities, is there a way to handover write-off receipts without myself being a registered non-profit?
