Lexis Nexis Occupational Injuries and Illnesses: AMA Guides Handbook
Product details
This volume consists of two sections. Part A begins with a background on the AMA Guides and then moves into a state -by -state analysis where use of the AMA Guides is required by statute. The title of each state chapter signals which edition of the AMA Guides is currently used in that state. Each state chapter begins with a “Quick Guide” to explain the law related to the use of the AMA Guides in that state. The other sections of the state chapters contain summaries of key cases that interpret the AMA Guides. Each case summary provides: (1) the procedural posture of the case; (2) an overview of the facts of the case; (3) the outcome of the case; and (4) AMA Guides discussion.
Part B consists of tables and charts. These practice aids include a 50 -state survey explaining the state -by- state use of the AMA Guides, a table of frequently used terms, and a table of common acronyms. The List of Issues and Citations indexes key topics with cross -references to cases broken down by jurisdiction. The medications chart is arranged by brand and chemical names.
