Infos

This book is a practical, up-to-date synopsis of issues affecting healthcare in the 21st century. The cases are real and practical for practicing physicians and attorneys. Focusing on case-based problems, from both clinical care and legal controversies, anyone in healthcare would benefit from reading this book. Chapters and topics include: medical malpractice, tort reform, health care reform, international law, agencies, including FDA, CDC, and CMS. There is an extensive discussion of ethical issues affecting medicine, including reproductive care, LGBTQ+ care, and end of life issues. The text was initially designed for a course in healthcare law at a law school and medical school. However, the in-depth discussions are applicable broadly. Whether a student of law and/or medicine, or a practicing attorney, physician, nurse, or even an administrator in healthcare, the issues, discussion and explanation of the law, rules and regulations will be tremendously useful.
