Our lawyers assist physician groups and other health care professionals that practice in a variety of settings, including in private practice, federally qualified health centers, hospitals, clinics and ambulatory surgical centers. Our focus is on helping to ease the legal and regulatory burdens on physicians and ancillary care providers so that they can focus on delivering quality health care services for their patients. We regularly work with clients in addressing issues related to contracting, third-party payer contracts and audits, fraud and abuse cases, Stark and anti-kickback laws, HIPAA and privacy concerns, and regulatory and licensing issues.
