E-Cig and Vape Companies Cashing in on COVID-19Santa Clara, CA Vaping and e-cigarette companies are using the corona virus crisis as a sales tool, despite warnings from health officials that vape and e-cigarette users might be at a higher risk for complications from COVID-19. And an attorney general accuses the FDA of vape fear mongering.
Emergency Room Overcharges –Surprise!Santa Clara, CA Almost one-third of Americans with health insurance who wind up in an emergency room find out after the fact that their health plan doesn’t cover as much as they thought. Given that there are about 140 million ER visits each year, and “surprise” emergency room charges are so frequent that 59 percent of Americans have been contacted by a debt collector and 16 percent of Americans’ credit reports include medical debt due to overdue medical bills, it’s not such as surprise that this debt totals about $81 billion.

AAJ? Uber Drivers May Have to Choose between COVID-19 Pay and Employee StatusSan Francisco, CA The story goes something like this – if one day, you saw someone drowning in the river (and supposing that you were a strong swimmer) you would jump in to save them. But if every day, at the same spot, you encountered the same escalating situation, you would eventually walk upstream to find out what was going on. The drivers in Capriole v. Uber Technologies Inc., a Massachusetts lawsuit that is similar to cases being concurrently argued under the terms of California labor law, argue that it’s time to walk upstream to check the bridge.
California Labor Law Issues During Coronavirus CrisisSanta Clara, CA California labor law issues connected with the coronavirus are emerging. Uber and its drivers have continuously fought over misclassification and countless lawsuits have been filed against Uber over whether its drivers are employees or independent contractors. Now Uber drivers are ramping up their case. And Zoom Video Communications is accused of failing to protect users’ personal information.
Emergency Room Overcharges with Coronavirus TestSanta Clara, CA Despite the $2 trillion coronavirus aid package that includes over $100 billion for hospitals and medical needs, and despite a law signed by President Trump on March 18 that supposedly allows Americans to be tested for coronavirus free of charge, some patients now face emergency room overcharges. While the tests may be free, both insured and uninsured patients are still charged the ER visit to get the test. And keep in mind that insured patients visiting an emergency room during this crisis could face huge ER costs.
