Are there SSD back pay usage time periods in West Virginia?
Dec 23, 2008 by Tommy F | Posted in Law & Ethics
I was given an amount of back pay from a social security disablity suit, but I have been given a six-month time limit on the use of it. If we did not spend the whole value within the limit, our Social Security check and state medical insurance will be revoked. Are they allowed to do this? What legal action could I take?
YES they are any time you file for state assistance you have a spend down on available assets and if you do not want to spend down then you would need to withdraw your application for state assistance.~

What is the cost of Medical Malpractice Insurance per year?
Dec 23, 2008 by nhawkman | Posted in Insurance
If you find a list of the yearly cost of malpractice of every state in the U.S., please copy it onto your answer. If not, please tell me the cost of it yearly in these states:
Pennsylvania
Virginia
West Virginia
Rhode Island
Massachusetts
Thanks!
In each of those states, for a vetrinarian, it's about $250 a year.
For all the others, it will depend on: which hospitals they have admitting priveleges to, the retroactive date on the policy, the limit of coverage, the type of medicine practiced, the type of procedures they do, the number of hours worked, the proximity to major city hospitals, How long they've practiced medicine, the prior claims history, and I'm probably forgetting a few other things. It can be anywhere from $500 for new dentists, to six figures for obstetricians and cardiac surgeons.

Hi, I am a Med Student and I want to do a 1 month rotation in the US, how can I get malpractise insurance ?
Feb 22, 2007 by KnowledgeSeeker | Posted in Insurance
I study in Jordan and the Medical School in West Virginia requires malpractise insurance for my one-month pediatrics rotation there, does anyone know how I can get it? thx
You'll need to contact an independant insurance agent in the US, preferably one who specializes in malpractice since your normal everyday State Farm or Allstate agent isn't going to have a clue what to do with Malpractice.
You may have a bit of a problem though because trying to buy a policy for one month is not going to be all that easy. I'm guessing that the hospital in West Virginia may have run into this problem before though since not too many medical students carry malpractice insurance. I would ask the hospital what suggestions they have for you to obtain this coverage. It's quite possible that they have an agent or broker that can provide the coverage for you. I have no idea what the premium will be though.

Unemployed squeezed on health insurance
09.01.09
WASHINGTON (AP) — Newly unemployed Americans will have to spend about 30 percent of their jobless benefits on average to pay for health insurance through their former employer, according to a new report. And if they want coverage for their families, the report by Families USA says it will take more than 80 percent of their unemployment check. Unemployment hit a 16-year high last month as another 524,000 jobs were cut. For all of 2008, government says the economy lost a net total of 2.6 million jobs. When workers lose their jobs, they are usually eligible to maintain their health insurance coverage through their old employer if they pay the premiums, plus a 2 percent administrative fee. The benefit is referred to as COBRA insurance, because of the law that established it. As part of his economic stimulus package, President-elect Barack Obama is proposing to spend about $80 billion dollars to extend unemployment benefits and to subsidize health care for people who have lost their jobs.
