Product Description

Health Law is both relatively recent in origins and also extremely dynamic. Regulators, plans, and providers have been evaluating changes to the health care delivery system—all while business, patient care, regulation, and oversight continue. Health lawyers need a broad understanding of both the industry and recent developments, to be effective for clients. Get an introduction to Massachusetts and Federal health care law—including the core issues and latest developments.

Learn the acronyms, players, general concepts, and important laws and policies. Sessions are valuable to experienced health care attorneys seeking an update and to lawyers new to health law practice. Lawyers representing health care providers, insurers and health plans, patients, governmental agencies, and employers purchasing health coverage for employees all benefit from attending.
