Who We Are

The Healthcare Litigation & Risk Management Interest Group examines areas in health care related litigation and the continuum of liability control. On the litigation side, such topics include antitrust, staff privileges issues and peer review proceedings, credentialing and medical staff development planning, and Bylaw interpretation. On the risk management side, such topics include monitoring national tort reform initiatives, and focusing on specific timely issues such as evidentiary protection of risk management documents, alternative dispute resolution, and utilization review/denial of care. The goal is to pursue a balanced and global approach to key issues. Thus, persons form all areas of health care -- hospitals, physicians or other providers, managed care organizations, long term care, among others -- who are involved in or interested in litigation and/or risk management are encouraged to participate.
