Product description
AHLA publishes a rich array of materials in the subject area of health law, held in high regard by all who know and use this content. Many of the authors and speakers who participate in AHLA events and projects include forms, sample policies, contract templates, checklists, and charts with their papers and book chapters. AHLA's Guide to Health Care Legal Forms, Agreements, and Policies Third Edition is a three-volume compilation of these resources, primarily derived from materials submitted to AHLA. This publication is therefore not the undertaking of a single individual but of scores of highly qualified health care attorneys who have generously shared their real-time, practical experience with colleagues. The content in this resource comes from the very community that it is designed to serve, and therein lies its value.
This annually-updated title is designed to provide health care professionals with an array of downloadable sample tools to assist them in developing the specific contracts, forms, and policies that they need to serve their clients. In using this resource, it is important to keep in mind that the information is presented as a time-saving roadmap but that additional research, and terminology will always be necessary to tailor a document to a specific client or setting.
