Attorney Caprez to Moderate MBA Health Law Seminar

Attorney Tim Caprez will moderate the upcoming Milwaukee Bar Association Health Law Section seminar “Hot Topics for Hospital In-House Counsel: What’s Keeping Us Up at Night.” The presentation will feature a distinguished panel of in-house counsel from some of the leading healthcare networks and institutions in Southeastern Wisconsin, including:

• Lorna Granger, Chief Legal Officer & Chief Compliance Officer, ProHealth Care
• Carrie Killoran, Vice President & Chief Compliance/Integrity Officer, Aurora Health Care
• Linda McPike, Associate General Counsel, Froedert & Community Health Inc.
• Jonathan Wertz, Director of Risk Management, Medical College of Wisconsin

Attorney Caprez, Co-Chair of the MBA Health Law Section, will facilitate a discussion among the panelists involving a wide-range of legal issues currently being faced by hospitals. The discussion will include practical approaches to pressing needs that hospitals and their in-house counsel face on a daily basis, and the manner in which the ever-changing laws, and regulations governing the nation’s healthcare system affect the legal parameters of hospitals’ overall patient care.

The seminar will take place on March 9, 2010, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at the Milwaukee Bar Association headquarters at 424 East Wells Street, Milwaukee, WI. Registration is required. For registration information, please contact the Milwaukee Bar Association, at 414-274-6760.
