Report Link New York's Highest Court Limits Scope of State Health Care Whistleblower Protection Law.Jackson Lewis LLP - July 03, 2008 Responding to a question certified to it by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, New York's highest court has limited the scope of New York's Health Care Whistleblower Law. The Court held the law, which prohibits a covered employer from taking retaliatory action against employees who "perform health care services," applies only to employees who actually supply health care services, such as nurses, and not to employees who merely coordinate those services. Reddington v. Staten Island Univ. Hosp., 2008 N.Y. Slip Op. 5955 (July 1, 2008). A broader reading could have made the law applicable to large groups of employees in a health care facility, not only those directly involved in rendering health care services. Report Link New York Prohibits Retaliation Against Health Care Whistleblowers.Jackson Lewis LLP - August 01, 2002 In a recently enacted statute, New York specifically has prohibited retaliatory employment actions against any health care employee who discloses or threatens to disclose to a supervisor or public body any activity, policy or practice the employee, in good faith, reasonably believes constitutes improper quality of patient care.
