HEALTHCARE
OVERVIEW |
|
Health care law is an ever-evolving field encompassing extensive state and federal regulation. Over the years, our attorneys have developed knowledge and skills in discrete areas of health care law. While the original focus of the practice of our attorneys in this area related to administrative actions of many types (for example, license denials and discipline, peer review, Missouri and Federal Administrative Sanctions, Employee Disqualification Lists, Certificate of Need, National Practitioner Data Bank), our experience has broadened to include legal counseling, opinions, and transactional aspects of health care operations, such as Stark Act and Anti-Kickback Statute, HIPAA and patient privacy, regulatory compliance and professional non-compete agreements.
