Healthcare Law and Compliance offers the student with a personal or professional interest in the healthcare industry and/or criminal law the opportunity to develop a basic understanding of the legal framework and ethical issues involved in today's healthcare environment.

Emphasizing the procedural mechanisms of the False Claims Act and the substantive law of the Anti-Kickback Act, the Stark Laws, the Food and Cosmetic Act, the seminar will explore the following: how prosecutors, defense attorneys, whistleblowers, and compliance officers approach their work; the relationships between regulated industries (pharmaceuticals; hospitals; doctors; medical device companies) and government insurance companies (Medicare; Medicaid); legal and ethical issues arising from the expanding edges of healthcare technology and treatment.
