• The Dangers of Raw Milk: What the FDA Won't tell you
    Years before refrigeration was widely available, dairy farmers knew the solution: place a silver dollar in the bottom of your milk pitcher. Silver kills bacteria and viruses within seconds of contact. My own grandmother used this when I was a child and we never got sick from drinking raw milk.

    Milk as Medicine
    Since ancient times, physicians like Hippocrates, Galen, Pliny and Varro have used raw milk to cure a wide range of diseases. Hippocrates advised tuberculosis sufferers to drink raw milk in quantity. In the Ayurvedic medicine of India, milk is used in the practice of brimhana meaning to “buck up” or nourish the body. It’s also used in rasayana to rejuvenate the body and in vajikarana, to promote sexual function and fertility. Physicians prescribed raw milk as a gentle laxative, to cool inflammation of ulcerated tissues, and as a galactagogue to increase milk production for the nursing mother. In the U.S., raw milk was used for one hundred fifty years to treat a wide range of conditions and is still used today in some hospitals in European and other countries.

    In an 1884 paper read before a meeting of the American Medical Association, Dr. James Tyson provided a short history of the milk cure in Europe. Dr. Inozemtseff of Moscow wrote a book called Milk Cure in 1857, in which he describes the treatment of a thousand cases. In 1864, Dr. Philip Karell read a paper on the milk cure before the medical society of St. Petersburgh. Said Karell: “With regard to my own practice I have, after fruitlessly trying all sorts of remedies in many chronic and obstinate diseases, at last succeeded in bringing the elementary [alimentary] canal, that seat of so many diseases, under my control. I did this by administering milk according to a new method.” In treating digestive disease, liver problems, asthma and other lung disorders, nervous diseases he concluded,"... in all these cases I consider milk as the best and surest of remedies.” Physicians had similar success in Germany and France.

    Silas Weir Mitchell, MD, specialist in treating nervous disorders during and after the Civil War, advocated a treatment that consisted primarily in isolation, confinement to bed, dieting, electrotherapy and massage--popularly known as “Dr Diet and Dr Quiet.” Mitchell advocated a high-fat diet to his patients, mostly women, and large quantities of milk. He suggested that his patients consume two quarts or more of milk a day.

  • Appear for a Scheduled EUO or Lose

    Failure to Honor Conditions Precedent Voids Coverage in New York

    Post 4937

    Read the full article at https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/appear-scheduled-euo-lose-barry-zalma-esq-cfe-gvkec/, see the full video at and at and at https://zalma.com/blog plus more than 4900 posts.

    State Farm contended that it is entitled to summary judgment because of the failure to appear for examination under oath (EUO) by multiple defendants. State Farm contended that timely notices were properly mailed to the Claimants who failed to appear.

    In State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company v. Alford A. Smith, M.D., et al, 2024 NY Slip Op 33802(U), Index No. 155607/2020, Motion Seq. No. 003, Supreme Court, New York County, Appellate Division (October 24, 2024) court ruled in favor of State Farm.

    The Supreme Court of New York County ORDERED that the plaintiff, State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company’s (“State Farm/Plaintiff’), motion for summary judgment was GRANTED against defendants, Alford A. Smith, M.D., P.C., and the multiple other defendants who are doctors, chiropractors and other health services, (hereinafter collectively (“The Defendants”).

    FACTS

    The Supreme Court found that the EUO scheduling letters were timely requested and claimants failed to appear at that EUO. The documentary evidence showed that plaintiff sent the EUO scheduling letters to the claimants within 15 business days of receiving the prescribed verification forms as required by New York statute.

    FRAUD, FAILURE TO APPEAR FOR EUO & FAILURE TO SIGN TRANSCRIPT ARE BREACHES OF MATERIAL CONDITION PRECEDENT

    The Appellate Division upheld the Supreme Court’s ruling that the failure to appear for an EUO that was requested in a timely fashion by the insurer is a breach of a condition precedent to coverage and voids the policy ab initio. In addition, although claimant Griselda Torres unlike the other defendants, appeared for her EUO, Torres failed to return a subscribed copy of her EUO transcript.

    State Farm properly and effectively argued that appearing for and testifying at EUO and returning the transcripts of the EUO are conditions precedent to coverage and failure to sign and return the transcript warranted a denial of the claims.

    State Farm demonstrated in its motion and supporting evidence that multiple claimants breached a condition precedent to coverage by failing to appear for properly noticed EUOs on two separate occasions. Furthermore, claimant Griselda Torres’ failure to subscribe and return the transcript of her EUOsviolated a condition precedent to coverage and warranted denial of the claims.

    Moreover, there was nothing on the Court’s record to suggest that the scheduled EUOs were not justified, nor held at a place and time that was not reasonably convenient to the defendants.

    CONCLUSION

    State Farm’s motion seeking summary judgment in its favor was GRANTED as to THE multiple defendants and it was further ORDERED that any requested relief sought not expressly addressed herein has nonetheless been considered; and it was further ORDERED that the case shall continue against the remaining defendants; and it was further ORDERED that within 30 days of entry, plaintiff shall serve a copy of this decision/order upon the defendants with notice of entry.

    ZALMA OPINION

    The defendants in this case were doctors, physicians, chiropractors and other health care providers who billed State Farm for services provided to people who were injured in automobile accidents and assigned their rights to the providers who tried to collect their billings without complying with the EUO condition. They all lost their claims because they refused to appear except one defendant who appeared but failed to sign the transcript of the EUO and return it to State Farm. They all lost their claims and State Farm will continue its actions against many more defendants not subject to the motion.

  • Permanent Punishment for Conviction for One Ounce of Cocaine Improper

    Government Overreach and Abuse Reversed

    After Recovery From Cocaine Abuse Dr. Regained License to Practice CMS Refused to Allow Dr. White to Bill Medicare for Services

    Dr. Stephen White challenged two unfavorable decisions made by the Secretary for the United States Department of Health and Human Services (the “Secretary”) that denied and revoked his Medicare enrollment. The decisions, rendered by the Appellate Division of the Departmental Appeals Board (“Board”), were based on Dr. White’s 2010 guilty plea and deferred prosecution for possession of less than 1 gram of cocaine, which occurred in Texas in 2007.

    In Stephen White, M.D. v. Xavier Becerra, Secretary for the United States Department of Health and Human Services, No. 2:19-CV-00037-SAB, United States District Court, E.D. Washington (October 28, 2024) the USDC applied entered a judgment reversing the decision of the Secretary [42 U.S.C. § 405(g).]

    SUMMARY JUDGMENT

    Summary judgment is appropriate if the movant shows that there is no genuine dispute as to any material fact.

    BACKGROUND

    Dr. White is an orthopedic surgeon. In 2006 and 2007, he was arrested and charged with possession of cocaine in Texas. He was able to rehab and become clean of his problem with the drug. The Texas Medical Board revoked his license, but then monitored his recovery and compliance and allowed him to practice again.

    Dr. White had no violations for nine years following his arrest. He is currently practicing medicine in Washington state and is an enrolled Medicare supplier.

    The Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) sustained the denial, finding that CMS had a legitimate basis because Dr. White was convicted of a felony offense. The Board affirmed the ALJ’s decision and Dr. White appealed that decision to the USDC.

    OVERVIEW OF MEDICARE PROGRAM

    The Medicare program provides health insurance benefits to people sixty-five years old or older and to eligible disabled persons. Suppliers, such as Dr. White, must be enrolled in the Medicare program and be granted billing privileges to be eligible to receive payment for care and services rendered to a Medicare-eligible beneficiary.

    DENIALS

    CMS may deny a supplier’s enrollment for any reason stated in federal statutes that allow that CMS may deny a provider’s or supplier’s enrollment in the Medicare program for the some of the following reasons: Felonies such as insurance fraud and similar crimes.

    REVOCATIONS

    The ALJ found CMS had a legitimate basis because White was convicted of a felony offense that CMS determined to be detrimental to the bests interest of the Medicare program and its beneficiaries.

    Dr. White’s presented equitable arguments to the ALJ that

    1 he self-reported and was not practicing;
    2 using his self-report to deny would encourage other physicians to not self-report,
    3 he has fully complied with the terms of the modified license, and
    eventually he was allowed to practice medicine without limitations.

    The Board affirmed the ALJ’s decision, upholding CMS’ denial of Dr. White’s Medicare enrollment and rejected Dr. White’s argument that the timing of the revocation action by CMS was clearly retaliatory and intended to apply pressure on Dr. White for additional monetary penalties.

    ANALYSIS

    The USDC found CMS’ decisions to deny Dr. White enrollment in Medicare and revoke his privileges, and the subsequent Board’s affirmations were arbitrary and capricious and not supported substantial evidence.

    CMS did not have a legitimate reason to deny enrollment or revoke because the record does not support CMS’ assertions that Dr. White’s 2010 conviction for simple possession of a small amount of cocaine was detrimental to the best interest of the Medicare program and its beneficiaries. The USDC understood the deference it owed to administrative agencies as they adjudicate numerous complex cases before them. Yet, a court may not simply act as a rubber stamp for agency decisions.

    Because CMS failed to provide a reasonable basis for denying Dr. White his enrollment in Medicare or revoking his Medicare privileges, the decision of the Secretary is reversed.

    ZALMA OPINION

    A doctor should never get involved or addicted to illegal substances like Cocaine. The Fact that a doctor self reports his involvement with the drug, was rehabilitated, clean for nine years, and practices medicine legally, does not pose a danger to Medicare as do those doctors who are arrested every year for fraud. The decision of Becerra, the ALJ and the Board was clearly retaliatory and abusive and the USDC had no choice but to reverse the Board and let the doctor continue to practice medicine and charge Medicare for his services. Overreach by the administrative agency was stopped by the court.

    the wrong direction for the cure of disease. Their worse
    than useless practice of killing germs with poison drugs
    has never—and can never—solve the problem of disease.

    During the Dark Ages, before the introduction of
    improved nutrition and sanitation, the world was intermittently visited with epidemics of smallpox.

    The cause was
    stubbornly ignored and the seeds for more disease were
    sown when vaccination was brought into popular use. This
    infusion of poison injected into the blood stream of the
    masses only served to intensify the disease in some cases,
    suppress the symptoms in others and create new and more
    serious diseases in still others.

    So, with the passing of years
    we have seen this misbegotten child of ignorance grow into
    a Frankenstein monster of immense proportions that moves
    relentlessly forward, grinding under foot the multitudes that
    throng its path.

    Through the lethal power of this poisoned needle, the
    simple zymotic (contagious) diseases of the past have been
    devolved into the horrors of the present—our terrifying and
    expanding crop of “killer diseases”. Many of these strange
    “mystery diseases” that baffle the entire medical world, are
    the sordid products of vaccine poisons that disturb the
    chemical balance of the body and interfere with normal
    functioning.

    All these medically-made atrocities are far worse than
    smallpox or any of the other eruptive diseases that nature
    provides as a means of expelling the accumulated poison
    waste from the abused body.

    This interference with the
    balanced economy of nature has multiplied the problems
    beyond the power of science to control.

    Our worst epidemics now are epidemics of vaccination

  • A Landmark Victory for Physicians and Patients – and the First Amendment – by the Fifth Circuit Today in AAPS v. ABIM
    https://aapsonline.org/physicians-right-to-free-speech-upheld-in-aaps-v-abim/

    A precedent-setting ruling in favor of the First Amendment was issued today by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. This influential Court established the right to object in court to censorship of physicians’ speech on topics ranging from government Covid policies to abortion, stated AAPS General Counsel Andrew Schlafly.

    The Court held that there is a constitutional “right to hear” that enables a sponsor of conferences, such as Plaintiff Association of American Physicians & Surgeons Educational Foundation (“AAPS”), to challenge censorship that chills presentations at its events. “This landmark ruling will be cited nationwide for decades to come,” Mr. Schlafly observed.

    AAPS sued three medical specialty boards for their threatened actions against the board certifications of physicians because of speaking out on medical controversies. Physic

    “FAMOUS ATHEISTS' LAST WORDS BEFORE DEATH:
    1. ANTON LEVEY—Author of the Satanic Bible and high priest of the religion dedicated to the worship of Satan. One of his famous quotes was: “There is a beast in man that needs to be exercised, not exorcised”. His dying words were: "Oh my, oh my, what have I done, there is something very wrong. . . there is something very wrong.”

    2. GANDHI—At his death, he said, “For the first time in 50 years, I find myself in the slough of despond. All about me is darkness. . .I am praying for light.”

    3. THOMAS PAYNE—The leading atheistic writer in American colonies: "Stay with me, for God's sake; I cannot bear to be left alone , O Lord, help me! O God, what have I done to suffer so much? What will become of me hereafter? I would give worlds if I had them, that The Age of Reason had never been published. 0 Lord, help me! Christ, help me! No, don't leave; stay with me! Send even a child to stay with me; for I am on the edge of hell here alone. If ever the Devil had an agent, I have been that one."

    4. SIR THOMAS SCOTT—Chancellor of England: "Until this moment I thought there was neither a God nor a hell. Now I know and feel that there are both, and I am doomed to perdition by the just judgment of the Almighty."

    5. VOLTAIRE—famous anti-christian atheist: "I have swallowed nothing but smoke. I have intoxicated myself with the incense that turned my head. I am abandoned by God and man.” He said to his physician, Dr. Fochin: “I will give you half of what I am worth if you will give me six months of life." When he was told this was not possible, he said “Then I shall die and go to hell!" His nurse said: “For all the money in Europe I wouldn’t want to see another unbeliever die! All night long he cried for forgiveness.”

    6. ROBERT INGERSOLL—American writer and orator during the Golden Age of Free Thought: "O God, if there be a God, save my soul, if I have a soul!" Some say it was said this way: "Oh God, if there be a God, save my soul, if I have a soul, from hell, if there be a hell!

    7. DAVID HUME—Atheist philosopher famous for his philosophy of empiricism and skepticism of religion: He cried loud on his death bed "I am in flames!" It is said his desperation was a horrible scene.

    8. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE—French emperor who, like Adolf Hitler, brought death to millions to satisfy his greedy, power-mad, selfish ambitions for world conquest: "I die before my time, and my body will be given back to the earth. Such is the fate of him who has been called the great Napoleon. What an abyss between my deep misery and the eternal kingdom of Christ!”

    9. SIR FRANCIS NEWPORT—Head of an English Atheist club, to those gathered around his deathbed: "You need not tell me there is no God, for I know there is one, and that I am in his presence! You need not tell me there is no hell. I feel myself already slipping. Wretches, cease your idle talk about there being hope for me! I know I am lost forever! Oh, that fire! Oh, the insufferable pangs of hell! Oh, that I could lie for a thousand years upon the fire that is never quenched, to purchase the favor of God and be united to Him again. But it is a fruitless wish. Millions and millions of years will bring me no nearer the end of my torments than one poor hour. Oh, eternity, eternity forever and forever! Oh, the insufferable pangs of Hell!”

    10. CHARLES IX—The French king. Urged on by his mother, he gave the order for the massacre of the French Huguenots, in which 15,000 souls were slaughtered in Paris alone and 100,000 in other sections of France, for no other reason than that they loved Christ. The guilty king suffered miserably for years after that event. He finally died, bathed in blood bursting from his veins. To his physicians, he said in his last hours: "Asleep or awake, I see the mangled forms of the Huguenots passing before me. They drop with blood. They point at their open wounds. Oh! That I had spared at least the little infants at the bosom! What blood! I know not where I am. How will all this end? What shall I do? I am lost forever! I know it. Oh, I have done wrong."

    11. DAVID STRAUSS—Leading representative of German rationalism, after spending a lifetime erasing belief in God from the minds of others: "My philosophy leaves me utterly forlorn! I feel like one caught in the merciless jaws of an automatic machine, not knowing at what time one of its great hammers may crush me!"

    12. JOSEF STALIN—Soviet Georgian revolutionary and politician. In a Newsweek interview with Svetlana Stalin, the daughter of Josef Stalin, she told of her father's death: "My father died a difficult and terrible death. . .God grants an easy death only to the just. At what seemed the very last moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and cast a glance over everyone in the room. It was a terrible glance, insane or perhaps angry. His left hand was raised, as though he were pointing to something above and bringing down a curse on us all. The gesture was full of menace. . .the next moment he was dead."

    13. CAESAR BORGIA—Italian nobleman, politician, and cardinal: "While I lived, I provided for everything but death; now I must die, and am unprepared to die."

    14. THOMAS HOBBS—Political philosopher: "I say again, if I had the whole world at my disposal, I would give it to live one day. I am about to take a leap into the dark."


    ******************
    BELOVED, compare these last words from atheists, with these last words, from these saints of God:

    THE APOSTLE PAUL: “O death, where is thy sting?”
    KING DAVID: “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no Evil.”

    AUGUSTUS MONTAGUE TOPLADY (1710-1778): Toplady will ever be famous as the author of one of the most evangelical hymns of the eighteenth century, "Rock of Ages," which was first published in 1776.
    During the final illness, Toplady was greatly supported by the consolations of the gospel: "The consolations of God, to so unworthy a wretch, are so abundant that he leaves me nothing to pray for but their continuance."

    Near his last, awaking from a sleep, he said: "Oh, what delights! Who can fathom the joy of the third heaven? The sky is clear, there is no cloud; come Lord Jesus, come quickly!" He died saying:"No mortal man can live after the glories which God has manifested to my soul."
    Lastly, JESUS CHRIST said: “I Am the Resurrection and the Life. He that believeth on Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.”

    Only fools never learn from history, and it's amazing that even in our days, with all these facts on our fingertips, someone with a mind can devote his entire life to a delusion, and want everyone to know that there is no God. No wonder the bible says,

    "Only fools say in their hearts, there is no God." (Psalm 14:1).“
