Assignment: Research Paper Topic Directions: The Research Paper Topic for your Final Research Paper is due. The case/issue analysis selected by the student is with the approval of the instructor.
Please pick a prior court case dealing with a legal/healthcare issue that interests you, a current legal/healthcare event/issue that is pending or that has been in the news, or any legal/healthcare issue that is worthy of writing about and would be of interest to you or others.
Whatever the topic/issue, you should be able to write about it using the criteria outlined below. If the topic does not lend itself to these criteria, it is probably not a good topic to consider.
The topic must center on some interaction between the legal system and the delivery of health care services.
For an appropriate topic you should be able to rely upon scholarly sources (i.e. published case opinions, journal articles, and news accounts) and not tabloids or web sites.
Use the Online Library to ensure that sufficient source material exists to support your proposed paper.
