Medical-Legal Consulting

Posted on by PRN | 2 Comments

I spent the last few days in Chicago lecturing at SEAK’s Non-Clinical Careers for Physicians conference. As always, the event attracted physicians interested in career change, consulting, and entrepreneurism. Medical-legal consulting was a particularly hot topic among the attendees, more than I have ever noticed before.

With medical-legal consulting in mind, here is some information from a website called Online FNP. Although the website is heavily focused on the needs and interests of family nurse practitioners, much of the information overlaps to a physician audience as well.

An article titled “100 Quality Resources for Nursing and Medical Law” provides links to numerous relevant websites, including the following samples:

The Health Law Firm

The Health Law Firm is located in Florida, but they provide legal services for all health care providers and professionals across the U.S. They offer a wide array of services from ABIM representation to whistleblower suits.

Beck, a Counsel resident in the Philadelphia office of Reed Smith, offers his personal views on various topics that focus on the defense of pharmaceutical and medical device product liability litigation.
