Overview: This webinar gathers four children’s hospital in-house counsel to examine a range of relevant issues including behavioral health, gene therapies, strategic alliances, and new programming, to shed light on the role of ethics, access, and standards of care to these challenges and others. Topics addressed include some issues unique to children's hospitals, others that are unique in the way children's hospitals approach solutions, and others where approaches may vary depending on whether hospitals are part of health systems or stand alone.

Learning Objectives: 

  • Learn about issues that may not be unique to children's hospitals, but are often exacerbated with pediatric populations.
  • Understand that medical ethics, complex diseases, and the role of guardianship make many challenges quite different from that of adult provider organizations.
  • Learn about varied best practice solutions.
