Welcome!
The Health Law Section is one of the New York State Bar
Association's youngest and fastest growing section. Formed in 1996, the
Section and its committees organize professional and public education
programs on health care law issues, make recommendations on health care
law and policy, publish the Health Law Journal and provide a forum in
which health care attorneys meet, exchange ideas, and improve their
knowledge and skills.
The Health Law Section is designed for members of the
New York State Bar Association as a forum to provide professional
education, exchange information and perspectives, and address issues
relating to health law. Section functions include examining the
possibilities of, and pursuing improvement in, health law, regulations
and procedure; disseminating educational information and ideas relating
to the development and practice in these fields, substantively and
procedurally; advancing the interdisciplinary work of the bar with other
disciplines involved in health care; and facilitating service to the
public with respect to health law and related issues.
Areas of focus include, but are not limited to, legal
issues relating to biotechnology, consumer/patient rights, health care
providers, inhouse counsel, insurance and other payment methods for
health care, managed care, issues of professional discipline, and the
structure and design of the health care system.
