Financial Pitfalls and Promises:
Addressing Modern Challenges in Healthcare Finance
Health law and finance are two vital pillars of modern healthcare systems, each playing a critical role in shaping the delivery, accessibility, and affordability of healthcare services. The intersection of these two fields presents a rich landscape for exploration, offering insights into the intricate dynamics that govern the healthcare industry. In recognition of this, we invite scholars, researchers, practitioners, and policymakers to contribute to a comprehensive discussion through our upcoming conference on healthcare finance.
This interdisciplinary conference aims to foster dialogue and collaboration among professionals from law, finance, healthcare administration, public health, economics, and related fields. We welcome submissions that delve into various aspects of healthcare finance, including but not limited to: healthcare innovation policy, healthcare financing models, health insurance regulation, healthcare payment systems, medical liability and malpractice, healthcare antitrust and competition law, health information privacy and security, and healthcare fraud and abuse. The symposium will feature a keynote by Dr. Michael Frakes, J.D., A. Kenneth Pye Distinguished Professor of Law at Duke University.
We invite submissions of original research papers, policy analyses, case studies, theoretical frameworks, empirical studies, and interdisciplinary perspectives. Submissions may range from theoretical inquiries to applied research with practical implications for policymakers, healthcare practitioners, industry stakeholders, and the public.
