Hospitals and Health Care Providers
Changes in government policy, regulation, and the market are transforming hospital operations and health care delivery – constantly adding new challenges to an already demanding environment.
We know how overwhelming it can be trying to effectively navigate today's regulatory environment and capitalize on strategic opportunities. Many members of our team have previously worked in key positions in both the private and public sectors, including the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC). We leverage our previous experience as top government officials in regulatory and policy agencies. And we leverage our long record of advising world-class clients in the hospital and health care delivery sector to anticipate future challenges and propose creative solutions.
From corporate structure and compliance to consolidations and transactions, we'll help you stay ahead of potential issues, avoid regulatory problems, and execute effectively on your immediate and long-term strategies. Having an in-depth understanding of the relationship between the government and global health care marketplace allows us to counsel you effectively on legal and regulatory issues – and to be your strategic advisor, litigator, and dealmaker, too.
Our health care transactions team leads the nation in the number of complex hospital, academic medical centers, and health system transactions it has handled. Combining our technical and industry knowledge enables us to understand your objectives, plan for the positions likely to be taken by other parties, and help you develop the best deal structure and strategy.
