Usually jpg files take less disk space then, for instance, tiff files. The extension JPG refers â¦ to JPEG files. The E is omitted to fit it into the (deprecated) 8.3 file name notation. JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group, the name of the committee that created the image standard. The group was organized in 1986, issuing a standard in 1992, which was approved in 1994 as ISO 10918-1. JPEG is distinct from MPEG (Moving Picture Experts Group), which produces compression schemes for video.
Medical malpractice insurance covers a practitioner against claims of negligence and unprofessional conduct. A practitioner's specialty area is the main cost driver of medical malpractice insurance, which can range from $4,000 to $20,000 annually.
The extra cost of malpractice lawsuits is a proportion of health spending in both the U.S. (1.7% in 2002) and Canada (0.27% in 2001 or $237 million). In Canada the total cost of settlements, legal fees, and insurance comes to $4 per person each year, but in the United States it is over $16.he two countries had similar health care systems before Canada changed its system in the 1960s and 1970s. The United States spends much more money on health care than Canada, on both a per-capita basis and as a percentage of GDP.
