Why Have Waits At Doctor Offices In Boston Grown To Be About A Year?

Despite Boston’s abundance of top-notch medical specialists, the waits to see dermatologists, obstetrician-gynecologists, and orthopedic surgeons for routine care have grown longer – to as much as a year for the busiest doctors.
A study of five specialties shows that the wait for a nonurgent appointment in the Boston area has increased in the past five years, and now averages 50 days – more than three weeks longer than in any other city studied.
Patients in Boston and other areas of Massachusetts for years have faced notoriously long delays, according to earlier surveys of physicians’ offices. A number of factors contribute, doctors said, but the 2006 health insurance law, which has required hundreds of thousands of state residents to obtain coverage, probably has worsened the waits.
“We had a bus that was pretty full, and then we invited more people on the bus,” said Dr. Gene Lindsey, president of Harvard Vanguard Medical Associates, a large physicians group. “Now people are standing in the aisles.”
Merritt, Hawkins & Associates, a Texas-based consulting and physician recruiting firm, surveyed 1,162 doctors’ offices in 15 metropolitan areas, trying to replicate what new patients would experience if they were searching for a doctor for a nonurgent appointment, including a heart checkup, a skin exam to detect possible cancer, knee injury or pain, a gynecological exam, and a complete physical exam.
Boston had the longest delays to see dermatologists, obstetrician-gynecologists, and family practitioners, and was second after Dallas in delays to see orthopedic surgeons. Waits increased since 2004 for appointments with dermatologists, obstetrician-gynecologists, and orthopedic surgeons, but patients can get in faster now to see cardiologists; Boston ranked fourth in waits for heart doctors, behind Minneapolis, Miami, and San Diego. The company did not survey family practitioners in 2004.http://www.boston.com/news/health/articl…

Reality Show, I Love Money:how Do U Feel About Boston Leaving?

When I first saw Boston (I didn’t watch Flavor of Love), my first time was in the first episode of I Love Money, I couldn’t stand his accent or his personality. However, now I like his accent and his personality! I wish that he didn’t get sent home! He’s a good guy. And he’s a great player, and he actually DOES have a lot of guts (although Megan said he didn’t). I wish he didn’t get sent home, he’s entertainment. How do you feel about him going home? Anyone agree with me? I wanted him to win!

Legal Advice? About Child Support! Long Plz Just Read And Answer!?

Okay well I know that i wont get the legal advice here but i am consulting an attorney tues, just wondering if anyone has experience with this. This all started last september when child support was to go down from 220.00 a week because the child went into kindergarden. It is in the divorce papers that The mother was suppose to take him back to court to have that lowered because he was paying 80 something extra dollars a week for daycare( WHICH I MIGHT ADD THE CHILD “NEVER” ATTENED ONE DAY OF DAYCARE THAT SUMMER) But she never did and upon entering kindergarden my husband found all the neccasray forms to calculate what childsupprt would be based on all the factors and took that amount to her and she agreed that she didnt have the money to take him back to court to have that lowered and she accepted that money(although now we are aware we shouldve had her sign something proving that) Tuesday he gets served papers saying that he was suppose to be paying her 220.00 this entire time and she has begged him for the money and he’s refused her(which she hasnt said the first thing about that and its now been 10 months) and it says she wants to be paid the 220.00 (which was only 220.00 because of the daycare) everyweek. and that he is in arrears and wants him to pay which is like over 3,000.00 back plus all her attorney fees. and that was horribly upsetting( may i add that 4 days before the papers were delivered she asked him to pay an extra 90.00 a week over 400.00 a month extra for daycare this summer and only gave him 2 days notice(this was on a saturday she expected the money monday) so he told her he couldnt afford to just give her an extra 400 something a month because hello thats ridiculous to ask of someone with 2 days notice and besides we are about to have a baby in 8 weeks and that kind of money doesnt grow on trees. He received another set of papers today saying that until our courtdate that we have to pay the 220.0 a week (the court date isnt until sept 2nd) So we are consulting an attorney tuesday. Sorry it was so long but i need advice from normal people too. Might i add that her and her new husband were suppose to be moving to boston the beginning of aug so he could go to school. What are our chances of coming out okay and not having to pay this hefer a **** load of money as well as all her damn attorney fees. This is just so nerve racking we have paid her what the legal forms said she is due, yet it didnt go through the courts but half the stuff they agreed upon while being divorced was okay as long as they agreed, i know if we wouldve gotten her to sign somthing this would be a hell of a lot better for us. We pay every week we get the kids every other week we dont bother anybody we just want to live our lives and every other month she is having some stupid bullsh*t stuff served to him about one dumb thing or another..PLEASE WHAT DO YOU THINK???

Downtown Topeka Explores 8 Myths About Brown vs. Board of Education

Today’s public understanding of the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education has been shaped by misconception and inaccurate information.

While Brown v. Board of Education is one of the most important milestones in U.S. history, it is often misunderstood. Below are commonly held myths about the case, and the realities of what actually transpired.

Myth 1: Brown v. Board of Education was the first legal challenge to racially segregated schools in the United States.

Fact: African American parents began to challenge racial segregation in public education as early as 1849 in the case of Roberts v. City of Boston, Massachusetts. Kansas was the site of eleven such cases spanning from 1881 to 1949.

Myth 2: The Brown case in Kansas came about because Linda Brown was denied access to her neighborhood school and had to walk dozens of blocks to attend an African American school.

Fact: The Brown case was initiated and organized by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) leadership who recruited African American parents in Topeka for a class action suit against the local school board. Although school buses were provided for African American children, they were only allowed to attend designated public schools based on race.

Myth 3: The only plaintiff in the Brown case was Oliver Brown on behalf of his daughter.

Fact: In 1952, Brown v. Board of Education was brought before the U.S. Supreme Court as a combination of five cases from various parts of the country, representing nearly 200 plaintiffs.

Myth 4: Oliver Brown’s name led the roster in the Topeka case because it was the first alphabetically of the 13 NAACP plaintiffs.

Fact: The Kansas case was named after Oliver Brown as a legal strategy to have a man at the head of the roster. There actually were two plaintiffs with the surname of Brown: Darlene Brown and Oliver Brown. The only male plaintiff was Oliver Brown, for whom the Topeka case was named.

Myth 5: Oliver Brown initiated the suit against the Topeka Board of Education.

Fact: Oliver Brown was asked to join the class action suit by Charles Scott, one of three attorneys serving as legal counsel for the Topeka NAACP.

Myth 6: The U.S. Supreme Court decision in Brown v. Board of Education was based on the Topeka case.

Fact: The U.S. Supreme Court combined five cases under the heading of Brown v. Board of Education from Delaware, Kansas, South Carolina, Virginia, and the District of Columbia. Those individual cases were Belton v. Gebhardt (Bulah v. Gebhardt) (Delaware), Brown v. Board of Education (Kansas), Briggs v. Elliott (South Carolina), Davis v. Prince Edwards County School Board (Virginia), Bolling v. Sharpe (District of Columbia) .

Myth 7: Thurgood Marshall was the NAACP attorney for the case of Brown v. Board of Education

Fact: The strategy to use the courts to challenge segregation in public education began with the NAACP under the leadership of Attorney Charles Hamilton Houston during the 1930s. Houston was the former Dean of Howard University Law School. Thurgood Marshall was hired into the NAACP by Houston, and worked on Brown with a team of attorneys.

Myth 8: The objective of the NAACPs legal challenge in the Brown v. Board of Education, was to eliminate segregation in public education.

Fact: Ultimately, the NAACP sought to end the practice of “separate but equal” throughout every segment of society, including public transportation, dining facilities, public schools and all forms of public accommodation.

The initial court ruling rendered in 1954 that determined racial segregation in public education was unconstitutional is known as Brown I. The court implementation mandate of “with all deliberate speed” in 1955 is known as Brown II. In 1979, three young African American attorneys in Topeka petitioned the court to reopen the original Brown case to examine whether or not the local school board had in fact ended all vestiges of segregation in public schools. That case is known as Brown III, which resulted in Topeka Public Schools building two magnet schools to comply with the Courts findings.

The National Parks Service maintains an education center in downtown Topeka about the struggle for American American equality. Visit it at 1515 SE Monroe Street, Topeka, KS 66612. Call the National Park Service at (785) 354-4273 for additional information.

Question About Small Business Insurance?

I am starting a new small rental business in Boston, MA and was wondering that the process is for getting business insurance. Is it just like getting car or homeowners insurance? Are the premiums the same as those, too (as far as monthly payments or one time per year payment)? If you started your own business, what steps did you take for insurance purposes?
Thank you in advance!
