This year’s conference organized by the California Society for Healthcare Attorneys was a success, as always. Thank you to all who helped put together this event and make it memorable, productive, and fun. Educational sessions covered a vast array of healthcare legal issues, some examples are: current challenges faced by long term care facilities, healthcare litigation update, ethical issues that outside counsel encounters when working with inhouse legal teams, requirements of public hearings, California’s update on involuntary psychiatric holds, and many more.

I was joined by Emily Jane Cook in discussing the updates on the 340b program. Emily is a national expert on the program and was invaluable for this presentation.

The next CSHA conference will take place in Northern California (in beautiful Tahoe). Please help spread the word among your healthcare attorneys practicing in California. This is a tremendous opportunity for healthcare attorneys to learn, socialize, and share their knowledge.
