Healthcare Transactions

We draft and negotiate management services agreements, vendor contracts, and cross-referral arrangements, ensuring they are compliant with federal and state fraud and abuse laws. Our approach balances operational efficiency with legal safeguards.

Our team designs innovative joint ventures and affiliations among hospitals, specialty providers, and managed care organizations. We create structures that enable collaboration on service delivery, technology, and research while meeting Stark, Anti-Kickback, and corporate practice of medicine requirements.

Our attorneys advise on transactions involving health insurers, managed care organizations, and provider networks. We negotiate and review payor contracts, reimbursement structures, and risk-sharing arrangements to support sustainable operations and revenue integrity.

We represent health systems, hospitals, physician groups, and private equity investors in acquisitions, divestitures, and consolidations. Our attorneys structure transactions to align with strategic goals, minimize regulatory risk, and address antitrust concerns. We also advise on integration planning to ensure a smooth transition of operations, contracts, and clinical services. 

We guide physician practices through acquisitions, buy-ins, buy-outs, and succession planning. Our team helps structure deals that preserve physician-patient relationships, comply with Stark and AKS, and respect state-level restrictions on corporate practice of medicine. 

We counsel funds and portfolio companies on healthcare investments, including management service agreements, provider group acquisitions, and roll-up strategies. Our work helps investors understand regulatory exposure, address licensing and reimbursement issues, and implement compliance programs that support long-term growth.

From certificate of need (CON) applications to Medicare/Medicaid enrollment and professional licensure, we help clients secure the regulatory approvals needed to close and operate successfully. We understand how state agencies, CMS, and accreditation bodies approach licensing and reimbursement, and we build approval strategies into deal timelines.

We assist providers, investors, and creditors in workouts, bankruptcies, and acquisitions of distressed healthcare assets. Our experience spans hospital system restructurings, practice group reorganizations, and acquisitions of distressed facilities—all with an emphasis on maintaining compliance during transition.
