Any recommendations on how to learn about healthcare law/compliance? I am a junior in-house attorney at a medium size healthcare company. I did a couple years of general lit in biglaw before my current position, and am looking to learn more about the healthcare landscape (including managed care, value based care, HIPAA security, billing, etc)?

I’m a healthcare regulatory and transactional attorney. Have you considered a healthcare compliance certification course? I was able to do it my last year of law school. Aside from that, BNA has some good resources that I use frequently and Strafford has some good lectures/webinars. Try looking at heath law firm’s websites as well and read their articles/watch their videos.

Seton Hall has a 3ish day healthcare compliance seminar. Maybe your current employer will cover your attendance to get a good base. Not sure how much they cover the topics you mentioned though.

I’m in the same boat, and so far no good advice. Everything seems hard to learn or you just gradually build your library of fed regs and ACA, etc. We have a few resources that are helpful but not something I think everyone has. Get to know the colleagues in other areas that know what the legal side should look like, and befriend these people!

What area do you focus on? Health care transactions is totally different from say reimbursements or HIPAA or provider licensing etc.

Hello everyone! What certifications do you think would be useful to a person who is a newcomer in the fraud and forensic industry. I want to boost my skill set and profile. Currently working as a due diligence, risk and compliance researcher at Kroll. I feel the research role is quite redundant without growth opportunities. Want to move into financial crime compliance. Will the CFE or CAMS be a good investment towards achieving this goal? My background is in law. Please advise.
