CSHA Committees
In CSHA committees, members come together to share knowledge in meaningful ways. CSHA committees are responsible for the content of all CSHA publications and events and offer valuable leadership opportunities to CSHA members.
Education Committee
John Barnes and Stephanie Gross, Co-Chairs
The Education Committee participates in the development and administration of CSHA’s educational programs, including a three-day program each Spring and a one-day program each Fall. Committee members participate in all aspects of program planning including topic selection, arranging speakers and planning program social events.
Publications Committee
Kate Broderick and Andrea Frey, Co-Chairs
The Publications Committee oversees the publication of California Health Law News. Committee members are involved in topic and author identification, as well as editing.
Membership Committee
Rachel Nosowsky and Mike Parnes, Co-Chairs
The Membership Committee seeks to increase the size and diversity of CSHA membership and expand member benefits. Additionally, the Committee administers the Law Student Mentor Program, advocates for CSHA members, develops membership questionnaires and responds to member questions and requests.
Hearing Officer Committee
Glenda Zarbock and Brock Phillips, Co-Chairs
The Hearing Officer Committee develops educational programs and other resources intended to increase the number of California attorneys with the requisite expertise to preside over medical staff peer review hearings. The Committee establishes the criteria for listing qualified attorneys on two hearing officer lists on the CSHA website — the Completed Hearings List and the General List — and screens applicants for each list.
Diversity Committee
Jeremy Avila, Chair
The Diversity Committee has been established to assist CSHA in achieving its goal of creating a culture that recognizes the value of individuals with diverse backgrounds, talents, experiences and perspectives at all levels of the organization.
Technology Task Force
David Balfour and Havi Jogani, Co-Chairs
The Tech Taskforce comprises members who address technology matters and implementation for CSHA on an ad hoc basis. Regular meetings are not scheduled unless the CSHA BOD assigns a specific challenge to the Tech Taskforce.
