Healthcare law is an area of law that covers national, state, and municipal legislation, rules, policies, regulations, and another pertinent jurisprudent among insurers, providers, payers, and public agencies administering healthcare services, with an emphasis upon administrative, transactional and procedural issues.

The major components of healthcare law include workers’ compensation, Medicaid, Medicare Part D, statutes concerning personal liability, the Nursing Home Adequacy Act, Mental Health Nursing Laws, private entities, healthcare providers, and patients. Healthcare law helps to establish the parameters governing the provision of healthcare services and insurance and their payment.

These laws also help to protect and ensure the right of individuals to access healthcare. Providers can also be held responsible for their client’s care delivery decisions if the provider violates a healthcare law. This can result in fines and serious legal issues for providers, so there is no room for negligence.
