Parker Poe attorneys assist clients in navigating the complex areas where the laws governing health care and education intersect. Our clients include academic medical centers and teaching hospitals, hospital systems that sponsor teaching programs, colleges and universities operating infirmaries and athletic programs maintaining student and faculty health information, health care providers partnering with educational institutions to provide training opportunities, and residential psychiatric facilities providing educational programs to its residents.

Our services on these issues include negotiating residency program sponsorship agreements between health care providers and medical schools; drafting faculty and student handbooks and student athlete policies on the handling of health information under HIPAA, FERPA and other privacy and security laws; and negotiating agreements between residential psychiatric facilities and local school districts regarding the provision of compliant educational programs. We draw on our vast pool of resources in multiple areas of law to provide clients with understandable and relevant information to solve their legal problems.
