Swimming Together Upstream: How to Align MLP Services with U.S. Healthcare Delivery

William M. Sage (Texas A&M University), Keegan Warren (Texas A&M University), Swimming Together Upstream: How to Align MLP Services with U.S. Healthcare Delivery, 51 J. of Law, Med. & Ethics (2023):

Notwithstanding decades of favorable outcomes, MLP is not as well-known as might be expected. In this essay, the authors explore ways in which strategic alignment of legal services with healthcare services in terms of professionalism, information collection and sharing, and financing might help the MLP movement become a more widespread, sustainable model for holistic care delivery.
