2015 Healthcare Summit

5.7.15

This panel offers advice, perspectives and discussion on methods for healthcare and hospital risk managers to stay out of plaintiffs’ counsel’s cross-hairs in civil litigation. Panelists suggest best practices and documentation strategies that will aid defense attorneys when opposing a motion to compel a risk manger’s deposition, or the production of a risk management file, and address how to navigate through a deposition or other testimony where it is unavoidable.
