Among the multitude of challenges are legal implications that come with electronic health records (EHRs), payments based on patient outcomes, mergers, fraud, insurance disbursements, and antitrust laws—just to name few.

HIPAA for Professionals.
HITECH Act Enforcement Interim Final Rule.
Emergency Medical Treatment & Labor Act (EMTALA).
A Roadmap for New Physicians: Fraud & Abuse Laws; Anti-Kickback Statute.
The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008.
