Abstract
Recent changes in the American medical care system, such as new forms of practice used by physicians and hospitals, have presented new and uncertain legal issues. This Article discusses these changes and how older legal doctrines, such as the corporate practice of medicine, have become outdated and are in need of change. Furthermore, efforts to remedy these outmoded legal policies are explored as well as ways for the practicing attorney to avoid the problems they cause.
