Prior to practicing law, I spent several years in sales and customer relations. Because of this, I take a multi-faceted approach to transactions. Providing clients with the best experience requires that we not only protect them from a legal standpoint, but also that we provide top-notch customer service while achieving their business objectives.
I support healthcare providers, private equity firms, and management service organization as they navigate the complexities of joint ventures, mergers, acquisitions, and contractual arrangements. I also advise clients on regulatory issues associated with transactions, such as licensure requirements, fraud and abuse risks, change in ownership implications, corporate practice considerations, and scope of practice determinations.
I advise healthcare entities and their business associates on meeting the compliance requirements of HIPAA, the HITECH Act, and any other state or federal confidentiality laws related to health information. I also assist in the development of policies and procedures, as well as breach analysis and notification investigations with the Office for Civil Rights.
With the rise in hacking incidents and ransomware attacks in the healthcare space, it is imperative that healthcare entities implement sufficient safeguards to protect their internal infrastructure from potential harm. Incorporating comprehensive policies and procedures, properly training workforces, and employing adequate cybersecurity measures are essential to keeping operations online and protecting patient information in the event of an attack.
