Digital Health Care for the Cognitively Impaired

AHLA's Speaking of Health Law

Tara Sklar, Faculty Director, Health Law & Policy Program, University of Arizona James E. Rogers College of Law, and Kathryn Huber, MD, Kaiser Permanente, discuss the prevalence of cognitive impairments as the U.S. population ages and the implications this has for the future of digital health care. They cover the legal and regulatory landscape and issues related to privacy, informed consent, coordination of care, and reimbursement. Tara and Kathryn recently wrote an article for AHLA’s Journal of Health and Life Sciences Law on this topic.
