Rita D. Brinley ADR Resource Center
Rita D. Brinley Tribute Page
The ADR Resource Center was formed to provide additional benefits for members and for resolvers on the AHLA Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Service Panel. The Resource Center will be compiling informative resources that will benefit arbitrators, mediators, hearing officers and those who advocate before them. The resources include case summaries prepared by AHLA staff, analysis articles written by members and resolvers, and articles written by others (after reprinting permission has been granted). The association urges resolvers to publish analysis pieces here to benefit their colleagues and to increase their own visibility within the ADR community. These resources will be an additional benefit for members and resolvers alike. AHLA staff will update this page from time to time with additional resources so please check back often to find out if any new resource has been published.

 The Alternative to Alternative Dispute Resolution
Reprinted with permission from the Association of Corporate Counsel 2010 All Rights Reserved www.acc.com
This excellent article persuasively summarizes the reasons not to use an "administered arbitration" and, in AHLA's opinion, makes an extremely strong case for using an "appointment authority" as the dispute resolution service of choice. The AHLA ADR Service is the premier "appointment authority" for healthcare, and AHLA encourages members and others to include it in relevant contracts and agreements. AHLA thanks ACC for making this article available and encourages in-house counsel to visit the ACC website to look at its magazine and benefits. |

Your ADR Service: ADR Training Testimonials |
| "AHLA arbitration training not only prepared me to serve as an arbitrator, it also increased my understanding of what I should expect from qualified arbitrators and the proceedings before them. It was a meaningful experience that clearly demonstrated that arbitration is not just "litigation-lite", but an opportunity to have a dispute heard by professionals who understand the transactions and issues."

"The AHLA Arbitration Training Program was an excellent blend of comprehensive and practical information. The instructor was very knowledgeable about all aspects of arbitration. He also encouraged participants to share their real-life arbitration experiences, which further enriched the program content and created an informal and relaxed atmosphere. I highly recommend the program to new and experienced arbitrators."
