Description

The purpose of this roundtable discussion is to provide healthcare attorneys with practical tips on how to deal with legal ethics issues that may arise in the course of advising healthcare entities on operational matters. In particular, the focus is on legal ethics issues in the representation of hospitals with respect to medical staff matters (e.g., credentialing, peer review, corrective action) and the importance of identifying who among the vast web of interconnected constituents (e.g., hospital, board of trustees, medical staff, committees or departments of the medical staff, individual practitioners, corporate operator) is the client that the attorney is engaged to represent. At the center of the program is a series of hypothetical scenarios implicating distinct legal ethics issues, including duties to organizational clients, client confidentiality, conflicts of interest, and duties to prospective clients.
