California Medical Marketing Laws
There's good reason that California is known as the King of Regulation in many legal circles. Its code sections on healthcare marketing alone are almost 3,000 words long. It would be impossible in this short space to highlight even a fraction of the issues a California practitioner may face when marketing medical services. Have your legal dictionary handy when you discuss potential medical marketing issues in California with your legal counsel.
Before you and your attorney dive too deep into the laws, be sure to check out our suggested Best Practices for Medical Marketing in California, giving you a quick reference on how to start developing legal and ethical healthcare advertising in the state.
