In an article recently published in the MDAdvisor Journal, Greenbaum attorney John Zen Jackson analyzes the number of times the option to self-administer medication under the Medical Aid in Dying Act (MAID) has been used in New Jersey on an annual basis. Resources in this article include statistics from five demographic categories, a comparison of data available from other jurisdictions with similar laws, and reasons for the relatively low utilization of the Act in New Jersey. The article can be viewed on the website of MDAdvantage, a New Jersey-based leading provider of medical professional liability insurance.

Of Counsel, Healthcare and Litigation

John focuses his practice on civil litigation including trial and appellate advocacy, primarily in the healthcare area, as well as in healthcare regulatory and compliance matters. He has represented healthcare providers in the defense of professional liability claims, licensure and credentialing disputes, reimbursement disputes, insurance coverage and insurance fraud cases, qui tam actions under the Federal False Claims Act, and hospital privilege disputes including termination litigation. He has been responsible for matters involving medical staff privileges at the internal hearing level and in subsequent court litigation. He has additional experience as a hearing officer in hospital privilege disputes and in drafting medical staff bylaws. He has authoritative expertise in medical liability, biomedical ethics, and end-of-life issues.

Certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a Civil Trial Attorney, John has litigated matters in judicial forums, trying numerous jury trials to verdict, and has appeared extensively before state administrative agencies and hospital credentialing committees. He has assisted healthcare entities seeking to outsource the handling of physician investigations, and physicians facing investigative inquiries and disciplinary charges before the Board of Medical Examiners (BME). He handles the full range of BME proceedings, including responding to an initial inquiry and appearing at a preliminary evaluation, responding to Orders to Show Cause and temporary suspension applications, hearings in the Office of Administrative Law (OAL), addressing the BME on disposition and discipline issues, argument of appeals before the Appellate Division, and appearances before the New Jersey Supreme Court.
