Recent Health Care Legal Developments – Looking Forward to 2017
By Ruder Ware Alumni
December 28, 2016
As we are coming close to the end of another year, I thought it might be good to pull together some of the health law articles and blogs we produced during 2016. Ruder Ware’s Health Care Focus Team puts out a lot of information on a variety of different blog sites. This is in addition to our newsletter and our more comprehensive “Blue Paper” series.
With a change in government we will see substantial changes in health law in the upcoming years. While no single source will be able to cover all of these developments, our coverage tends to bring things down to the “street level” for providers. You can sign up for our newsletter or go to one or more of our blogs and grab the RSS feed to follow our analysis of what is going on in the industry.
