Now in its tenth edition, The Law of
Healthcare Administration explores the serious legal challenges that
healthcare leaders must be equipped to deal with. This classic text
helps readers think through the issues, applying current legal
principles and relevant judicial decisions. Drawing on their practice
and teaching backgrounds, authors Stuart Showalter and Sallie Thieme
Sanford aim to provide an accurate, accessible, and engaging textbook
that helps students understand the law’s evolving, multifaceted role in
the administration of healthcare entities. Like its predecessors, this
edition provides a comprehensive overview of healthcare law, and its 15
chapters include substantial revisions and new material, including
discussions of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health (the US Supreme Court’s
June 2022 decision that overturned the constitutional right to
abortion), Biden-era Affordable Care Act (ACA) litigation and
regulation, evolving antidiscrimination standards, the federal No
Surprises Act, new fraud and abuse regulations, crisis standards of
care, Good Samaritan overdose statutes, apology laws, and much more.
