Health Law is a wide and varied area, encompassing the points where health and the law intersect. Health law includes the legal duties that doctors hold to patients, hospital entity formation and governance, medical research and development, regulatory bodies like the FDA and IDPH, and federal laws like HIPAA, EMTALA, ERISA, COBRA, and COPPA. Of high importance in our digital age, is security and privacy of personal information relative to the health care industry, as covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and Part 11 of Title 21. These regulatory frameworks touch almost every aspect of health law in the United States.
