A student-friendly casebook for the new generation of health lawyers in an evolving legal landscape, The Law of American Health Care emphasizes lightly, carefully edited primary source excerpts, plain-language exposition, focused comprehension questions, and problems for concept application. It introduces key themes and uses them as a conceptual anchor so when the law inevitably changes, students have tools to nimbly move forward. These themes include: federalism; individual rights; fiduciary relationships; the administrative state; markets and regulation; and equity and distribution. The book engages topics in-depth, to give students a comprehensive understanding of the most important features of health care law and hands-on experience working through cutting-edge issues.  New to the 3rd Edition:  Current debates about government power among public health officials, legislatures, judges, and other state actors, including issues arising from the COVID-19 pandemic  Public insurance materials reorganized so students can better absorb Medicare/Medicaid and apply lessons of the pandemic and litigation over various issues  Solidification of ACA reforms, including surprise billing legislation and changes in the exchange subsidies that attempted to fill the Medicaid coverage gap  Consolidated health care business organization materials   New/revised materials and new cases in tax exempt entities and health care fraud/abuse, state action doctrine, and discrimination in healthcare/health insurance (including history of attempts to address health care discrimination, 1964 Civil Rights Act Title VI, ADA, HIPAA portability, ACA guaranteed issue, renewal, community rating, and Section 1557)  Government enforcement’s more aggressive approach to labor issues  Dobbs v.
