SUMMARY:Webinar: Deliberate Indifference to a Serious Medical Need - From Both Sides of the V
DESCRIPTION:Since 1976\, the Supreme Court of the United States has observed the constitutional right to health care for all incarcerated persons. This right has coalesced into three fundamental tenets: (1) the right of access to care; (2) the right to care that is ordered; and (3) the right to professional medical judgment.  This CLE examines how different jurisdictions define deliberate indifference to a serious medical need pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983\, assessing in detail both the subjective and objective components of the claim.  This CLE explores the evolution of the doctrine since the precedential ruling of Estelle v. Gamble (1976) nearly 50 years ago\, and endeavors to identify the current definition of constitutionally adequate care in corrections.  Speakers include a plaintiff’s counsel and defense counsel\, who will discuss how to pursue and defend the most commonly litigated scenarios of deliberate indifference to a serious medical need. \nPresented by the Health Law Section. \nFor questions regarding this program\, please contact MyLaw CLE by email: registration@mylawcle.com or phone: 877-406-8636. \n\nAbout the Presenters\nTaylor D.

SUMMARY:Webinar: False Claims Act Litigation in Healthcare
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will give both an overview of False Claims Act (FCA) enforcement in the health care arena\, as well as a summary of recent developments and trends in government enforcement actions against health care fraud.  As health care attorneys are well aware\, the health care system in the United States is the most heavily regulated industry other than nuclear energy\, and the penalties for violating the regulations can be draconian – even when it is the result of honest mistakes.  This webinar will highlight ways that health care attorneys can prevent their clients from being the subject of a government investigation and how to protect them if they are investigated.  The subject matter is appropriate for health care regulatory and transactional attorneys\, as well as for litigators – and both younger attorneys and experienced attorneys are welcome. \nPresented by the Health Law Section \n\nAbout the Presenter\nG.

SUMMARY:Webinar: COVID Immunity Issues Impacting Healthcare Providers-The PREP Act and State Immunity Orders-A Get Out of Trouble Card or More Trouble Than Its Worth?
DESCRIPTION:The COVID-19 Crisis has created unforeseen and unavoidable circumstances in healthcare delivery that has compelled the Department of Health and Human Services to expand the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness Act (PREP) for certain COVID medical countermeasures by licensed healthcare professionals and for certain covered persons and entities.
