Program Summary
Litigating a nursing home case, on both the plaintiff and defense side, is not what it was just a few years ago. Electronical medical records (EMR’s), though not yet required for nursing homes as a condition for receiving Medicare and Medicaid, are now universally used and create both new problems and new opportunities. The discovery process, depositions and trials must be conducted differently. Also changes to the “Watermelon Book” (Long Term Health Care Survey) affect evaluation of care and the process of expert evaluation. Finally nursing homes, enclosed environments containing the frail or cognitive impaired, were especially hit hard by the Covid epidemic and this has resulted in a flood of new litigation.
This course is co-sponsored with myLawCLE.
Key topics to be discussed:
- Recent case law on the use and admissibility of EMR’s
- The new “Watermelon Book”
- Legal theories and defenses in Covid-19 litigation
Date / Time: September 13, 2023
