Healthcare

The effective and efficient delivery of Healthcare–from hospitals to physician practices in top line,  laboratories, home health, nursing homes, academic medical centers and all associated durable medical equipment–may be the most critical component of a prosperous society. Led by a former senior lawyer from the Justice Department, our healthcare practice team navigates providers such as physicians and hospitals around this tenuous landscape through targeted regulatory, compliance and litigation counsel.

We advise clients on the full gamut of healthcare business and legal needs, including:

  • The False Claims Act
  • Anti-Kickback
  • HIPAA
  • STARK Law
  • Federal Trade Commission healthcare investigations

We’re seasoned practitioners that know every element of the healthcare provider journey. Our backgrounds enable us to successfully lead cases with federal agencies, including the Department of Justice, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the Food and Drug Administration and the Drug Enforcement Administration. We also know how to engage state agencies and assist with a range of cases from reimbursement matters to HIPAA regulation. Our legal guidance helps clients:

  • Open distribution channels for telehealth and Artificial Intelligence medical devices in the United States
  • Structure mergers and acquisitions of medical practices, ambulatory surgical centers, sleep labs, DME suppliers and other non-hospital suppliers and providers consistent with regulatory requirements
  • Navigate federal and local licensing and distribution laws for items of durable medical equipment
  • Assist existing providers to add a new service line consistent with state and federal fraud and abuse laws

Equally important, we are on the leading edge of the ways in which technology is changing the world of healthcare. Our attorneys have taught some of the world’s first law school courses in blockchain technology and are involved in the creation of the first multi-university blockchain institute in the country. Having competencies across these spectrums make us fully equipped to support our clients with all of their healthcare legal needs.

Our team moves beyond surface issues to dig into the heart of healthcare challenges, offering value-driven solutions by leveraging our healthcare legal experience. We engage a range of provider areas, including cardiology, urology and oncology, and extend our work to laboratories and durable medical equipment groups. Having worked in these spaces and having a deep understanding of the challenges, we’re able to support clients with structuring and framing their operations to be aligned with state and federal guidelines. And in instances where providers are towing the line on matters like potential fraud or negligence, we are there to provide the necessary business and legal guidance. By proactively identifying risks, clients can pursue their ambitions without fear of an adverse audit and mitigate regulatory risks.
