Medical Malpractice Insurance Crisis: An Inquiry into the Relationship between the Crisis and Access to Health Care for Women of Color

Public policy measures that advance minority physicians\u27 access to minority women should also be pursued. The IOM suggests offering, as one solution, financial incentives to minority physicians who serve minority populations. Both OB/GYN and ER physicians have the highest propensity to serve minority women, yet there is no obvious incentive for these specialty groups to do so. This recommendation is repeatedly made by not only the IOM, but by the AMA, ACOG and public health advocates who have researched this area. If implemented, incentives could immediately increase the number of minority women who have access to health care

Disturbance and its effects on species diversity, composition and abundance: a test with the UMBS Burn Plots.

Disturbance may result in changes in species diversity. We examined two questions: 1) What is the recovery time for a forest after a major disturbance? and 2) What are the differences between a heterogeneously aged forest and a homogeneously aged forest. For both questions we determined if there would be a significant differences in tree, arthropod, and small mammal species composition, abundance, and diversity. Our data indicates that disturbance plays an important role in the composition, abundance, and diversity of tree, arthropod, and small mammal species within a habitat. This study indicates that there is greater tree diversity in heterogeneously aged stand compared to homogeneously aged stand. There also is greater tree species diversity in older stands among the burn plots. In addition, soil arthropod and small mammal abundance is greater in the homogeneously aged stand. This study has great relevance to land management strategies as human and natural induced disturbances increase because it hsows how diversity, abundance, and composition changes as a disturbed habitat ages.http://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/54522/1/2961.pdfDescription of 2961.pdf : Access restricted to on-site users at the U-M Biological Station
