Mr. Kim will also push for a deal that will give nuclear reactors to North Korea. The South Korean president has been advocating a less restrictive strategy in dealing with North Korea.

High court rules claim-review delays in health payments don't violate rights
Article Abstract:
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that "workers' rights aren't violated when medical payments to doctors are withheld pending a review of claims." Workers in a Pennsylvania case brought the issue before the courts in 1993. The high court's decision should help contain medical costs in the sense that utilization review determines whether charges are necessary and reasonable.
