Facilitating collaboration and compliance for the betterment of health care.
National in scope, the Feldesman Health Care practice helps organizations to improve care coordination, lower overall costs and enhance the health of their populations.
FQHCs and other organizations face complex and changing requirements, along with increased regulatory scrutiny. Feldesman attorneys help clients navigate a broad array of issues and potential exposures — in areas including HRSA audits and 340B program compliance — while pursuing innovative collaborations to improve overall care.
The attorneys of the Health Care practice group share with our clients the belief that health care is a right, not a privilege. For more than 30 years, working side by side with the National Association of Community Health Centers, State and regional primary care associations, we have found and continue to find creative and affordable ways to meet the complex legal service needs of health centers and other safety net providers across the country.
Thoughtful, practical, and resourceful, our attorneys are known for their ingenuity in solving client problems within legal requirements under the Public Health Service Act (such as the Section 330 community health center and 340B drug discount programs), Social Security Act (Medicare and Medicaid programs), Fraud and Abuse Laws (Anti-Kickback Statute, Stark Self-Referral Law, and False Claims Acts), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Privacy and Security Regulations, Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA), antitrust laws, and tax-exempt law.
The Health Care practice group offers years of experience assisting clients in a full-range of legal and consulting services including regulatory advice, legal agreements (transactions), compliance programs, and litigation and internal investigations. We also conduct trainings across the country on topics such as corporate compliance, managed care, and effective governance as well as offer consulting services related to grant writing, needs assessments, federal applications.
