The New Healthcare Landscape - Shared Savings or Shared Misery?

This program will address changing relationships between providers and payors as a result of the new healthcare landscape. Part I of the program will focus upon consolidations and collaborations such as: 1) the purchase of physician practices by hospitals and integrated delivery systems; 2) the distribution of revenues and clinical integration in commercial and Medicare ACOs; and 3) the California Health Benefit Exchange. The speakers will provide some practical legal tips for physicians with respect to their changing relationships with providers and payors as a result of these consolidations and collaborations.

Part II of the program will include a discussion of emerging legal challenges for physicians such as: 1) the use of physician extenders; 2) the legal ramifications of using electronic health records (“EHR”); 3) how to use cell phones and PDAs in a physician practice while limiting legal liability for violating HIPAA and patient confidentiality laws; and 4) the implications of healthcare reform on the “standard of practice.” The speakers will address steps physicians can take to reduce their liability exposure with respect to these emerging legal challenges and new insurance coverage issues.
