ERISA and Health Insurance Subrogation in All 50 States Second Edition Now Available for 2007

After two years in the making, the Second Edition of "ERISA And Health Insurance Subrogation In All 50 States" is finally finished and ready for 2007! It is available through Juris Publishing at http://www.jurispub.com. This  edition is the most complete and thorough treatise covering the complex subject of ERISA and health insurance subrogation ever published.

The Second Edition of ERISA And Health Insurance Subrogation marks a new era in health insurance subrogation in our country. The book encompasses, dissects, and explains all of the new state and federal case and statutory law which has been decided since the First Edition was published. A lot has changed! Much of the book had to be rewritten and reorganized in light of the landmark 2006 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Sereboff v. Mid-Atlantic Medical Services, which served as damage control and clarification of the confusion over and conflicting Circuit Courts of Appeals' treatment of the 2002 U.S. Supreme Court decision in Knudson v. Great West Life & Annuity Ins. Co. v. Knudson. Other significant case law, including the 11th Circuit Popowski and Carillo decisions, are also analyzed, explained, and applied. Suggested plan language improvements are even included to deal with the tsunami of changes which have affected health insurance law since the First Edition. Even pending litigation and possible Congressional action, which may affect health insurance subrogation in the coming years, is discussed and explained in the Second Edition - which is the most comprehensive and thorough treatment of this area of the law ever compiled.
 
So many changes have taken place that the book had to be literally rewritten and reorganized. Although health insurance subrogation has become unduly complex and confusing over the last five years, the Second Edition goes to great lengths to make the complex understandable, and easily digestible and useful for both practicing lawyers and the inexperienced health insurance subrogation claims handler and other subrogation professionals. For the first time since 2002, health insurance subrogation professionals can spend less time reacting to the drive-by confusion and damage inflicted by the Knudson decision - a case which should never have been appealed in the first place - and more time focusing on maximizing health plan recoveries in both state and federal court. The Second Edition contains a rewrite of Chapter 10, with an expanded easy-to-understand explanation of the complicated interplay between state and federal court jurisdiction as it applies to a plan's rights of subrogation and reimbursement In short, the Second Edition is the best resource on ERISA and health insurance subrogation to be found anywhere. No claims handler, plan administrator, subrogation professional, or lawyer should be without it.
