Abstract: Legal clinic education originating in the United States, aims at educating students on legal practical skills, and plays an positive role in cultivating students' ability of integrating theory with practice and training their various practical vocational skills. The present Chinese training mode of health law specialty does not perform very well in training students' practical ability, while legal clinic education can better make up for some deficiencies. Therefore, this paper learns from the experience of American universities in their legal clinic education, such as the particular division of specialties, the development of outside-school clinics, taking pre-training seriously, and the unique evaluation mechanism. Correspondingly, we explore to construct a set of reasonable legal clinic education system in health law specialty, including the orientation of legal clinics, the double training system inside and outside school, the construction of teaching staff and the establishment of evaluation mechanism.
