Health Law

The Health Law Section deals with a wide variety of health care law issues relevant to attorneys for hospitals, physicians, insurers, employers, patients and government agencies. These issues include Medicare/Medicaid and private insurance reimbursement issues; medical malpractice; certificates of need and state licensure; health care finance, taxation and antitrust; managed care (HMO and PPO); and hospital staff issues and peer review. The Section publishes a newsletter for its members and conducts educational seminars during the year. The Section also sponsors health law projects among the various Georgia law schools, such as the Georgia Advocate's Guide to Health Care, prepared by Mercer University School of Law with funding from the Section. The Section co-sponsors with ICLE an annual Health Care Fraud Institute.
