Despite the monumental changes that have occurred in the American health care delivery system since publication of this book’s previous edition, hospitals remain at the center of the storm. Although the relationship between a hospital and its physicians remains a key concern, the nature of that relationship has changed, taking a variety of forms that trigger more complex legal and practical implications. New risks have emerged as a result of evolving care models (e.g., direct contracting) and types of care (e.g., telehealth).
As a result, effective representation of hospitals and health systems requires familiarity with a broader array of legal concerns at both the federal and state levels. This publication represents our work, and the work of many volunteer authors, toward the goal of providing both an orientation and in-depth hands-on practice guide that covers the full range of topics related to hospital-based health care
To help readers navigate the sea of applicable law, this completely updated and wholly reorganized second edition of Representing Hospitals and Health Systems contains thirty-six chapters, organized into six parts:
Part I Establishing and Maintaining Hospitals
Part II Payment for Hospital Services
Part III Fraud and Abuse Issues for Hospitals
Part IV Hospital Operational Issues
Part V Considerations for Specialized Settings
Part VI Other Selected Topics
Within the chapters, experienced practitioners describe the relevant legal framework and provide insight into both legal and operational impacts, as well as techniques for managing them.
Representing Hospitals and Health Systems is recommended to everyone who needs a thorough understanding of the complex legal, payment, and policy mechanisms that govern hospitals and health systems. This publication will serve as a critical guide, not only for those who represent these central entities, but also for those who represent physicians, ancillary care providers, and the wide variety of stakeholders that provide or receive services related to the provision of hospital care.
