We exclusively serve medical practices,
including individual practitioners, small
and large specialty group practices, and
multi-specialty physician groups. We believe
our clients’ interests
are best served through legal counsel that
only represents physicians, never hospitals.
Our
clients practice in a complex, and constantly
changing business and regulatory environment.
We routinely review and negotiate contracts,
assist with the formation of multi-specialty
groups and other physician organizations,
participate in the purchase and sale
of medical practices, negotiate and draft
employment agreements, and advise physicians
on complying with the array of federal
and state laws regulating health care.
Specific areas in which we advise and
represent clients include:
- Billing compliance and reimbursement
issues
- Contracts with hospitals
- HIPAA
- Stark II and anti-kickback statutes
- Joint ventures
and affiliations with hospitals
- Mergers
and acquisitions
- Licensing
- Medical records
- Medical staff membership
and privileges
- Real estate and equipment
