How we can help.

The legal aspects of being a physician in today's healthcare industry have become increasingly complex. New laws and regulations govern patient rights, reimbursement and involvement in ancillary services to name a few. Usually, we can help a client determine if they need legal assistance in a matter of a few minutes on the phone. Because we serve physicians exclusively, we are readily familiar with a wide range of legal issues. Here are some of the most common ones:

Contract review — We look for opportunities to change the language of contracts to be more favorable for our physician clients. Many organizations use standard contracts and have flexibility to change the terms.

Patient privacy compliance requirements — We respond to the day-to-day concerns of physicians practices relating to HIPAA.

Formation of medical practices — We provide advice on the type of entity, and handle the paperwork involved in creating the new entity.

Dissolution of medical practices — We provide advice and assistance in performing the legal steps to dissolve an entity and provide its owners with the funds due to them.

Formation of provider organizations — We help physicians join together to jointly contract with payors and/or hospitals.
