Informed Consent in the Revised Common Rule

On Thursday, June 6th, Gregory James Smith, special counsel in our business and health law section, who focuses his practice on health care professionals, home health and hospice agencies, provider networks and medical and technology enterprises, gave a presentation on “Informed Consent in the Revised Common Rule” at the annual Law Professors Conference of the American Society of Law, Medicine and Ethics (ASLME), held this year at the Law School of Loyola University Chicago.

The conference is attended by professionals who teach law or bioethics in schools of law, medicine, public health, health care administration, pharmacy, nursing, and dentistry. The conference combines presentations by experienced health law teachers with the opportunity for discussion among conference participants. The program is designed to provide participants with updates on issues at the forefront of law and medicine and to provide them with the opportunity to share strategies, ideas, and materials.
