Episode 35: US Digital Health Series – Intellectual Property

On this episode of Health Care Beat, we kick off a special series inspired by Seyfarth’s recent collaboration with Lexology on the release of an updated overview of legal issues affecting digital health in the United States. Jamaica Szeliga, a partner in the firm’s Intellectual Property group and NEW Health Care Beat co-host, joins Chris DeMeo to discuss the section of the publication she co-authored on intellectual property protection of digital health developments. Jamaica and Chris discuss unique challenges associated with patenting digital health products and methods, as well as some alternatives to seeking patent protection.
