This online course offers a broad survey of legal and policy issues relevant to health care policy makers, administrators and other critical health care stakeholders (i.e., consumers and providers). It provides an overview of the national and state legal and regulatory structure and examines the common law, statutes, and regulations that affect hospitals, physicians, and other health care providers. It explores how health care regulation may help or hinder increasing access, reducing cost, and improving quality. The legal and policy ramifications of the Affordable Care Act will also be an important discussion topic throughout the course.
