For the record - Sept. 11, 2010
Preexisting conditions: In the Sept. 6 Health section, an article on health insurance for people with preexisting medical conditions incorrectly stated that individuals could access annual records on their use of prescription drugs by contacting the MIB Group. The MIB Group does not compile personal pharmacy information. To access that information, consumers can contact Milliman IntelliScript at (877) 211-4816 or https://www.rxhistories.com/contact_us.html; or MedPoint Compliance, Ingenix at (888) 206-0335 or https://www.ingenix.com/contactus/.
LAUSD school year: The Los Angeles Unified School District has clarified information regarding reductions in busing described in a Sept. 8 article in the LATExtra section about this year’s unusually late start to the academic year. For the most part, students in magnet programs or other integration programs will retain bus service, even if no service is provided for other students at that school, officials said. Specifics vary by school and program. For more information, go to or call (800) LA-BUSES (522-8737).
Toyota case: In some editions Sept. 10, an article in the LATExtra section about a legal ruling involving Toyota Motor Corp. misidentified a judge who had barred release of company documents as a federal judge. The judge, John Segal, sits on Los Angeles County Superior Court. The story also said arbitrator Gary L. Taylor based a ruling on evidence only from plaintiff Dimitrios Biller. Taylor considered evidence from both Biller and Toyota.
LED bulbs: An article in the Sept. 10 Business section about a lawsuit filed by the Federal Trade Commission against bulb manufacturer Lights of America Inc. included Home Depot in a list of retailers that sold the company’s LED bulbs. The bulbs are not sold at Home Depot.
Movie ‘reboots’: In a Sept. 10 article in Section A about Hollywood’s efforts to breathe new life into established movie franchises, Matt Tolmach and Doug Belgrad were identified as co-presidents of production for Sony Pictures. They are presidents of Columbia Pictures, a division of Sony Pictures. The article also said the movie “Let the Right One In” was Danish. It is Swedish.
