Future Presentation – The Kerry Kennedy DUI Ambien Case: An Enterprise Risk Management Analysis
Sponsored by the American Health Lawyers Association (AHLA)
Feb. 12, 2015 – Webinar
According to Ms. Teri Kielhorn, Member of AHLA’s ERM Educational Task Force:
“As some thoughts for why it would be of interest from an ERM perspective, the case reflects the broad impact of look-alike drug containers beyond the issue of physical harm to a patient in a hospital setting. We have seen the impact of look-alike/sound-alike drugs in hospitals but this case involves the impact on the patient from the perspective of dealing with criminal charges as well as potential impact on the ordering MD, and the retail (or clinic) pharmacy.”
