Hall Center Grand Rounds Event Considers New ACA Requirements
11/18/2016
Healthcare providers must adhere to the latest regulations of the Affordable Care Act concerning civil rights. The Hall Center for Law and Health’s Grand Rounds series addressed “ACA Section 1557 Compliance: New Requirements for Providers” during a lecture on November 17 by Indianapolis attorney Anne Ruff.
Ruff (in the photo) is an attorney at Hall Render Killian Heath & Lyman in Indianapolis. She focuses her practice on HIPPA privacy and security, medical staff relations, clinical services and patient care issues, regulatory and compliance matters and legal and ethical issues involved in clinical research activities.
“Section 1557 is one of the most important pieces of Civil Rights legislation for decades and the implementing of the regulations is sure to merit the attention of all healthcare lawyers,” said Professor Nicolas Terry, executive director of the Hall Center at IU McKinney. “We are very fortunate that Anne Ruff, a true expert in this area, could lead us through some real complexity."
