Description

The Law of Health Care Organization and Finance 9th Edition Elizabeth Pendo ISBN 9781684677139

This book is designed for specialized health law courses that focus on the organization and financing of health care, and it is equally suitable for programs in health administration, business, or health policy and management. It opens with an introduction to fundamental concepts affecting cost, quality, access, and equity in health care, and presents the economic principles and analytical tools central to health policy and reform initiatives.

The book offers extensive coverage of payment systems, including Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance, and examines their influence on the structure and operation of the health care delivery system, including alternative payment models such as accountable care organizations. It also surveys organizational structures and legal relationships within health care enterprises.

Legal issues affecting health care payment and delivery are thoroughly explored, with up-to-date treatment of the Affordable Care Act, fraud and abuse laws, antitrust enforcement, ERISA, and requirements for tax-exempt entities. Several chapters address the legal framework for quality control, covering professional licensure, institutional licensure and certification, and nondiscrimination obligations.

As in prior editions, the authors provide a variety of classroom teaching tools, including problem exercises that challenge students to navigate legal, policy, and practical issues, and a rich selection of materials drawn from judicial opinions, statutes, regulations, agency guidance, and other authoritative sources.
