The Juris Master in Health Care Regulation is an online, 30-credit-hour master’s in law that can be completed on a part-time basis. The program enables working professionals to acquire legal skills to advance their careers in today's dynamic health care industry.
You will gain a strong understanding of regulatory compliance and health care risk management. Working professionals will better understand the compliance issues surrounding their work and be able to effectively strategize for, identify, and understand potential legal and regulatory hazards. Students also gain an understanding of how to implement intelligent risk management programs and determine when legal counsel is needed.
The curriculum has been designed for hospital administrators, compliance officers and risk managers, as well as for other health professionals. Students begin their studies by taking foundational courses in Contracts, Torts, Legislation and Regulation, and Regulatory Compliance.
