9:00 - 10:00
A Hard Bargain: Treatment of Medical Special Damages for Medicare and Medicaid Beneficiaries

Since Swanson v. Brewster resolved the issue of awards for discounted medical services for plaintiffs with private insurance under Minnesota’s Collateral Source Statute, we still discuss the issue for those plaintiffs with large discounts provided by Medicare and Medicaid due to their exemption from the statute. We will discuss this issue from two perspectives.

     John Casserly, Geraghty, O’Loughlin & Kenney, P.A.
     John M. Dornik, Siegel Brill, P.A.


10:00 - 11:00
What do colonoscopies and e-discovery have in common?  Both are unpleasant, but necessary

Like it or not, e-discovery is coming for medical malpractice actions.  Judges expect that attorneys are competent in e-discovery.  Josh and Amie will provide a primer on e-discovery and discuss its potential (useful!) application for both plaintiffs' and defendants' medical malpractice attorneys.
     Amie E. Penny Sayler, Bassford Remele
     Joshua M. Tuchscherer, Meshbesher & Spence, Ltd.

11:00 - 11:15

Minnesota Association for Justice

The Minnesota Association for Justice (MAJ) was established in 1954 by a small group of lawyers dedicated to protecting the rights of the injured and accused. The MAJ was created to better represent the overall interests of their clients and their profession as well as to share information, trial strategies and to collectively influence legislation. The Minnesota Association for Justice is a dynamic, pro-active membership driven organization dedicated to helping our members build their practice, better represent their clients and strengthen our profession. Our lobbyists and public relations staff monitor legislation, develop strategies and effectively represent our position to legislators and policy-makers.
