Hospital Bankruptcies – Unique Challenges and Current Hot Topics

The webinar will discuss (i) the reasons for the growing trend of health care cases, (ii) the unique challenges in those cases, which involve not only the typical payment of creditor claims, but also the care of patients, (iii) the particular issues that arise uniquely in this class of cases, including jurisdiction over the Medicare and Medicaid Programs, treatment of provider agreements, the intersection of nonprofit law and bankruptcy law, and treatment of medical malpractice claims, and (iv) whether the trend of health care filings will continue.
