FHCDA Listserve
Introduction
The FHCDA Listserve is an email-based forum for
discussing the FHCDA: when you send an email to the listserve, all
subscribers will receive it, and any subscriber can reply to
it. Accordingly, subscribers can pose questions about the
FHCDA here, and other subscribers can provide their
answers.
The Listserve is offered as a free resource, to
facilitate problem-solving in the implementation of the
FHCDA. It available to any one – including
health care professionals, health care attorneys, advocacy groups,
policymakers and members of the public – interested in discussing
the FHCDA.
As should be apparent, answers offered by
subscribers may or may not be correct, or they may be a matter of
debate. Readers must review listserve answers critically, and use
judgment before relying upon them. It should be equally apparent
that this listserve is not a substitute for professional legal
advice.
Instructions on how to subscribe, post a message
and unsubscribe are at the end of this page. But please read the guidelines below before you subscribe to the FHCDA
list
1. IMPORTANT ANTI-VIRUS INFORMATION. All subscribers are required to have recent and updated
ANTI-VIRUS software resident on their computers. Messages
delivered by listserves are not passed through Anti-Virus
software. The NYSBA is not responsible for any loss of data or
productivity as a result of virus activity that may be inadvertently
delivered through this medium.
2. When you are the person posting a question,
please try to give it a clear and concise subject name, e.g.,
“Surrogate Decision-Making Standard”, or
“Confidentiality of Ethics Review
Committees.”
3. Please include identifying and contact
information at the bottom of the messages you post so that other
subscribers will know who you are and how to reach you directly.
If your mail system does not have an auto-signature feature, at least
include your full name, company name (if appropriate) city, state, and
e-mail address.
4. Make sure that questions and information
posted to the listserve is directly related to the purpose of the
list. Do not forward jokes, chain letters or other off-topic
messages to this, or any other list.
5. When you reply to a message received from this list, the reply
will automatically be sent to everyone else on the list. For this
reason, we recommend not sending courtesy replies, such as “thank
you” and “me too” to the entire list. If you
want to reply to only the sender, use the Forward option of your mail
system, and copy and paste the individual’s email address into the
To: field.
If your reply is simply a request to receive a copy of what
someone has offered to share, or simply to agree with, or thank someone,
please do not reply to the entire group. Instead, send your
response directly to the e-mail address of the person who posted the
message by clicking on your "Forward to" button, and typing in, or
cutting and pasting in, the e-mail address of the individual to whom you
are responding.
6. If your
message is an informative response to someone's question, from which
everyone can learn, you should respond and send your reply message to
everyone. However, avoid re-sending the entire message to which
you are replying. Cut and paste the relevant parts when
replying.
7. In accordance with common listserve courtesy, please refrain
from sending unsolicited "commercial" and/or self-promotional postings
to the list.

posted if they encourage or facilitate members to arrive at any
agreement which either expressly or impliedly leads to price fixing, a
boycott of another's business, or other conduct which is intended to
illegally restrict free trade. Messages which encourage or
facilitate an agreement about the following subjects are inappropriate:
prices, discounts, or terms or conditions of sale; salaries; profits,
profit margins or cost data; market shares, sales territories, or
markets; allocation of customers or territories; or selection, rejection
or termination of customers or suppliers.
12. NYSBA does not actively monitor the site for
inappropriate postings, and does not on its own undertake editorial

appropriate action, including and not limited to removing a poster from

“flame” individuals, or engage in angry
tirades.
