RN Market has been making big changes recently. In 2010, we introduced our new finance program!

FORENSICS- is the application of a broad spectrum of sciences used to answer questions of interest to a legal system in relation to a crime or a civil action. Many Legal Nurses have expanded their practice by adding forensic training to their repertoire. Forensic science is used to investigate criminal cases involving a victim, such as assault , robbery, kidnapping, rape, murder and civil cases such as forgeries, fraud, or negligence. Due to advancement in technology in the past decade, many cold cases have been brought back to life. For instance, in 2001, the combination of two different types of DNA tests, the short tandem repeats test (STR) with polymerase chain reaction (PCR), allowed investigators to re-exam evidence which enabled them to amplify and compare samples. These tests proved indispensable, allowing scientists to sequence and copy very short fragments of DNA taken from crimes scenes. Together, these tests closed a 20-year-old cold case, The Green River Killer. Gary Ri...

The Medicare Strike Force was established in 2007 as part of the Health Care Fraud Prevention & Enforcement Action Team (HEAT). This multi-agency team of federal, state, and local investigators was developed to shut down large-scale Medicare schemes operating throughout the country and safeguard taxpayer dollars. Their aggressive fight against health care fraud is operating in 9 districts throughout the U.S. They announced last month their expansion to two additional cities. Advanced Legal Nurse Consultants and Certified Legal Nurse Investigators are trained to spot Medicare fraud. More than 1,000 individuals have been charged with falsely billing the Medicare program for more than $2.3 billion. These individuals include doctors, nurses, health care company owners and executives, who are accused of various healthcare fraud-related crimes. Some of the crimes included conspiracy to defraud the Medicare program, violations of anti-kickback statutes, criminal false claims, money laun...

Legal Nurse Investigators all over the world have moved into positions in order to conduct unbiased and fact-finding investigations occurring on or about Hospital and Health Care Properties. The Special Investigations Unit (SIU), at most major Hospitals, provide services to victims of domestic or workplace violence which may include: court escorts for restraining orders and other appearances, work and home security surveys, threat assessments, and personal safety planning. The growing need for facilities to keep a Nurse Investigator/Claims Analyst on staff is on the rise, especially in nursing homes. Some feel the nursing home inspection process is full of corruption. There are constant violations against nursing homes regarding abuse and negligence. For example, according to a June 3, 2009 story in West Palm Beach, FL, a resident was treated for a broken leg with a cast. The wound should have been treated every three days according to the state inspection report. However, the Nurse I...

Oftentimes, good news comes packaged with bad news. Unfortunately, this again is the case with Ryan and Veronica's wedding. The morning after their wedding, Veronica was awoken by a phone call bearing bad news. Patty Klein passed away in a car accident on December 30th at 9am. Patty was a close friend to many at RN MARKET, an expert in some of Veronica's cases, one of Veronica's wine girls in her wine blogs and one of RN MARKET's best legal nurse consulting clients. Many of you have met her at various RN MARKET events. Most recently, she attended the Indulge conference in Tampa. Patty was driving on an interstate off-ramp when her vehicle veered onto the grass. She overcompensated causing the vehicle to spin and overturn. While the vehicle was flipping, it hit an oak tree. She died instantaneously. Patty was 39-years-old. If you tried contacting RN MARKET yesterday and nobody answered, it was because the entire staff attended her visitation. We apologize for any inconve...

Ryan & Veronica are finally hitched! After almost seven years of dating, engagement and working together, Ryan and Veronica have tied the knot. The wedding was held on New Year's Eve and the reception lasted through midnight. It was an elegant evening filled with great food, great wine and great celebration. Their celebration was very limited by the size of the venue and only family and a couple of very close friends were able to be invited. Veronica has decided to take Ryan's last name. Therefore, her last name will change from Castellana to Sanchez over time.
