Product Description

Book Description

Now in its fifth edition, The Law of Healthcare Administration continues to examine the legal aspects of healthcare from a management perspective. Using plain language, the book is a comprehensive treatment of health law in the United States, addressing topics from the basic structure of the court system to the general legal responsibilities of healthcare organizations to the specific liabilities inherent in the provision of care. Legal concepts in the book are supported by examples from actual court decisions. This edition features: * Discussion of recent legal developments in high-profile areas such as HIPAA, abortion, and withholding life-sustaining treatment * Revisions to the corporate-compliance chapter that better emphasize fraud and abuse issues * Addition of sidebars that provide extra information, real-life examples, and interesting insights about the concepts explored * Inclusion of objectives, summaries, and discussion questions to focus the discussion in each chapter * Introduction of a Glossary and Suggested Readings to supplement understanding and encourage further learning

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Intro to Law of Healthcare Administration, Aug 5 2009

This review is from: Law of Health Care Administration (Hardcover)
A well-organized, well-written textbook, with the right mix of discussion, analysis, and excerpts from case law. Style is very matter of fact; good handling of technical legal issues to make them accessible to lay (or at least non-attorney) readers. Used it to teach law course at a public health school, and students seemed to feel the book was very good.

4.0 out of 5 stars A definite upgrade from the old version, Sep 16 2005
By M. S. Mills - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Law of Healthcare Administration (Hardcover)
I'm using this text for a graduate level course, and it is a terrific resource. Our professor is one of the top health care lawyers in the state, and he is of the opinion that this text is leaps and bounds improved over the last version. I recommend it.

this book was not printed correctly. Part of chapter 9 is chapter 8(from another book), and so there are pages missing from chapter 9. Would like to return for refund, please.
