Some of our attorneys that are members of the ABA Health Law Section were sent supplements by BNA for Health Care Fraud and Abuse: Practical Perspectives. without asking for them. Here's the story according to BNA:
>From what I was told, earlier in the year the ABA provided members of their Health Law Section with "free" copies of the main treatise. A BNA rep that they were "given" the list of people that received the treatise by the ABA and then BNA subsequently sent a letter to all of these people saying "unless we hear differently from you, we're sending you a supplement" or something along those lines. Our attorneys I'm sure ignored this communication it and... Presto! We now have multiple shipments saying "here's the book you wanted. $115 please."
Am I wrong or they not allowed to do this? Anyone else have this happen? It may have and you might not know about it as these shipments were directed right to the attorneys. Ours were accidentally sent to the Library by our mailroom.
