HCANYS Top 5 is a monthly newsletter with you in mind. These are the top five things happening in home care right now. Take a few minutes to see what's going on, including information specific to HCANYS members.
The forthcoming agenda will include critical information on sepsis developments across the continuum of care, sepsis data, program and clinical interventions, and the latest in sepsis related research, education, and policy.
HCANYS extends association-wide congratulations to “our own” medical student interns who, on Thursday, May 8 were conferred their Doctor of Medicine degrees at Albany Medical College’s 187 Commencement Ceremonies in Saratoga Springs, NY.
On matters of independent contractor classification, Agencies should continue to follow New York case law, which continues to require consideration of the following four elements: (1) whether the principal (employer) retains the power to select and engage the servant; (2) the principal’s methods of payment for services rendered by the servant; (3) whether the principal has the power to dismiss the servant; and (4) the extent of the principal’s power of direction and control over the servant’s activities. The right to control is the key factor in this determination.
