Online Seminar

A Review of Health Law

October 07, 2009 - November 26, 2009

Health law impacts every facet of your organization. Keeping track of the legal and regulatory effects on areas as diverse as billing, physician recruitment, mandatory reporting, and patient care is an enormous responsibility – especially because the laws are constantly changing.

This online seminar will give you an overview of health law, including an awareness of the consequences of failing to comply with legal requirements, and how you can obtain appropriate legal advice as an informed consumer. Presenter Sarah Freymann Fontenot is a lawyer and nurse with more than 10 years of experience teaching health law for a variety of medical schools and health associations.

You'll Learn:

  • Define the federal, state and common laws that govern any healthcare entity
  • Evaluate current practices that may be impeding on patient rights
View additional learning objectives

You'll also learn:

  • Recognize the criminal implications of certain practices such as fraudulent billing and kickbacks
  • Clearly communicate your risk management strategies with your patients, and how the reporting of errors plays out on a personal and governmental level
