Charting The Middle Course: An Argument For Robust But Well-Tailored Health Care Discrimination Protection For The Transgender Community, John E. Farmer

Section 1557 of the Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act offers sweeping discriminationprotections for
patients, applicable to both health insurers and health
care providers who receive federal funding or are
subject to federal administration. Placing itself in the
canon of federal antidiscriminationlaws, Section 1557
incorporates Title IX of the Education Amendments of
1972 to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex.
Just how sweeping this aspect of Section 1557s
prohibitions is has been the subject of controversy
exemplified in litigation in the federal courts, as well as
in the starkly contrasting views of two presidential
administrations. The Department of Health …

All states require parents to inoculate their children against deadly diseases prior to enrolling them in public schools, but the vast majority of states also allow parents to opt out on religious grounds.

In writing our casebook, The Law of American Health Care, we started from scratch, rethinking the topics to include and themes around which to organize them. Like many health law professors, we were schooled in and continued to propound the traditional themes of cost, quality, access, and choice. While those concerns certainly pervade many areas of health care law, our casebook's overarching themes emphasize different issues, namely: federalism, individual rights, fiduciary relationships, the modem administrative state, and market regulation. These new themes, we believe, better capture the range of issues and topics essential for the new generation of health lawyers. …
