For health care professionals today, whether individual providers or institutions, the health care environment is not only medically complex, it is also legally complicated. It’s a reality that faces those practicing in Maryland just as much as it is for those that practice medicine or provide health care in the D.C. area, Prince George’s County and across the country.

Tomorrow’s health care horizon seems to be filled with more and more legal twists and turns, making the practice of medicine and the providing of health care ever more problematical and difficult in their day to day operations. Between convoluted laws and rapidly advancing science and technology, there does not seem to be a relief to the stresses of modern health care in sight.

Physicians are confronted with the spectra of malpractice allegations, issues concerning the withholding or withdrawal of treatment as well as contractual relationships with hospitals and other health care providers. Problems involving labor and management, clinical services, business venture arrangements and the pros and cons of various practice structures frequently arise.

Hospitals have related concerns, such as structuring appropriate contractual relationships with physicians and alternative delivery systems, ensuring the completeness and continuity of medical staff bylaws, enforcing discipline against physicians and minimizing risks while maximizing quality care.
