This site was developed in recognition that education is an important
element of AHLA's Public Interest commitment ". . . to serve as a public
resource on selected healthcare legal issues." Thanks to the
Associations the Links with Academia Advisory Group for establishing and
helping to maintain this site.
About These Web Pages
This site is intended to provide a smorgasbord for all academic health
lawyers in the United States. Our hope is that all health law teachers
will find something useful here, whether they are teaching health law
for the first time or are a grizzled veteran; are a full-time teacher or
part-time "adjunct"; or teach in a law school setting or in a school of
public health, a medical school, or in one of the allied health
professions' schools.
In addition, many schools offer more than one "law and medicine" or
"health law" course: a survey course that covers most of the major areas
of health care regulation and litigation, medical malpractice, food and
drug, bioethics, etc. These pages are designed to provide valuable
information for all teachers in the field, regardless of the precise
focus of their course offerings.
Advice Columns Offer Insights on Classroom Techniques and Other
Health Law and Health Policy Topics
An advice column on the Academic Health Law site, written by guest
authors from academia and private practice, provides insights and
teaching tips as well as advice on researching and teaching specific
health law or health policy topics.
The eighth guest column, "Teaching
DRG's: How and Why", was written by Mark A. Hall, Fred D. and
Elizabeth L. Turnage Professor of Law at Wake Forest University,
Winston-Salem, NC.
