Healthcare Litigation
For more than 25 years, a large part of the firm's practice has been dedicated to representing Physicians and other Healthcare Professionals and entities in connection with licensing, credentialing for hospital and insurance companies, due process hearings, Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement issues, defense of state and federal criminal proceedings and Federal False Claim Act penalty cases.
This committment to the representation of healthcare professionals has led the firm to become extensively involved in civil matters for healthcare and other professionals who find themselves in need of advice and guidance. The firm's work in these matters has led many professionals to seek the firm's assistance in partnership and shareholder disputes involving restrictive covenant enforcement and defense, and actions against hospitals and insurance companies where these entities are attempting to exclude the healthcare provider from participation on staff or in network. We have listed below a sample of the firm's experience in representing medical and other professionals.
-
More than two dozen hearings before federal, state and administrative agencies, including licensing, DEA participation, Medicare and Medicaid participation
-
More than 25 matters in which the firm has represented physicians in disputes with hospitals involving credentialing, restrictive covenants, contract buy-outs, fair hearings, and the like
-
In 2006, the firm, in two separate cases, brought about the successful reinstatement of physicians where their credentials to participate in an insurance network had been revoked
