Washington, DC – Bertram Law Group PLLC has announced its scholarship opportunity for high school students. The scholarship opportunity is open to high school juniors or seniors who live in Washington D.C., Virginia, or Maryland.

Interested applicants are directed to prepare an entry essay of between 1,000 and 2,000 words on ONE of the following topics:

  • “What can the healthcare industry do to stop medical mistakes from happening?” 

  • “How is technology in the medical world changing patient-provider relationships?”

  • “How can our healthcare system better protect the security of patient data from hackers? Furthermore, do HIPAA regulations need updating to reflect these changes?”

  • “Do telemedicine visits have risks associated to patient safety?”

  • “How can technology be used to make healthcare safer?”


Entries are required to be submitted in Word document or PDF format before June 30th, along with a high school transcript (also in PDF format) and a headshot (in .JPG or .PNG file format).
