Abstract: Legal Essentials in Health Care Administration is a distillation of the most important topics from the widely popular Legal Aspects of Health Care Administration by the same author. Using reader-friendly, jargon-free language, this text unravels the complexities of the legal system in health care and provides the reader with a strong foundation in health law. Readers will gain a solid understanding of what steps providers of care, legislative bodies, patients, patients' families, and patient advocates can take to help prevent the wide variety of harmful events that are involved in health care. This book is a sound reference for anyone who wishes to become more informed about how the law, ethics, and health care intersect. Features: Actual court cases, state and federal statutes, and common-law principles are examined. A historical perspective on the development of hospitals, illustrating both their progress and failures through the centuries. A basic review of tort law, criminal issues, contracts, civil procedure and trial practice, and a wide range of real-life legal and ethical dilemmas that caregivers have faced as they wound their way through the courts. An overview of various ways to improve the quality and delivery of health care.
