The California Medical Association (CMA) Center for Legal Affairs is happy to announce the upcoming release of the updated California Physician's Legal Handbook (CPLH) for 2013. CPLH is the premier California health law publication with more than 4,500 pages, and 8 volumes, of comprehensive legal information, including current laws, regulations and court decisions related to the practice of medicine. Preorder your copy by April 15 and save 10 percent.
CPLH is updated annually by CMA attorneys to include the most recent changes in health law. CPLH 2013 includes new and updated sections on the health benefits exchange, direct primary care models, medical staff alignment models, EHR meaningful use stage 2 and e-prescribing.
Starting in 2013, CPLH is also available on a new subscription-only website. The new CPLH website, www.cplh.org, features full search term capabilities using keywords, specific citations and court cases as well as the ability to save searches and easily email and download CPLH content. A CPLH website subscription comes with access for five individual users. (Additional users can be added for a nominal fee.)

Physicians are reminded that most of the CPLH content is available FREE to members in CMA On-Call, CMA's online health law library, at www.cmanet.org/cma-on-call.
