Book addresses the gap between law and health technology

MIMS, Fla. — Health care attorney, author, compliance expert and owner of Compliance Ala Carte Susan Walberg has announced the release of her new book, “Healthcare Technology: Law and Compliance, The User-Friendly Guide to Healthtech Law.

This book was written to address a gap: Laws and regulations in this field often stem from different eras and technologies, leaving many developers, investors and professionals in the dark. While many are familiar with HIPAA Privacy and Security requirements, they often overlook the broader spectrum of applicable laws and related risks.

The book addresses that gap by offering a comprehensive, accessible guide for developers, start-ups, clinicians and others involved in health care technology. Walberg is a seasoned attorney and compliance professional. She includes practical guidance, case examples and straightforward explanations in the course of the book.

Some key features include:

  • Comprehensive coverage: Addresses a vast array of health tech laws, regulations and industry guidelines.
  • User friendly: Easy-to-read style that makes complex topics accessible.
  • Practical insights: Real-world examples to illustrate key points.

Walberg has more than 35 years experience working in health care as a fraud investigator, a regulatory attorney and privacy officer for a multi-state health system, as well as a compliance professional. She owns a consulting business, Compliance Ala Carte, which provides a range of consulting services relating to compliance and regulatory risks.

This is her third book, following “Insider’s Guide to Compliance” and “Insider’s Guide to Compliance for Physicians Practices.” She also has written two award-winning novels.
