Healthcare

Health care is one of the most regulated and rapidly evolving industries in the country, and navigating it demands counsel with both legal sophistication and industry knowledge. Hinckley Allen's Health Care practice is among the most respected and experienced in the Northeast, guiding providers through the full complexity of the modern health care environment.

The team advises on the complete spectrum of health care matters: business transactions including health system formation, joint ventures, and mergers and acquisitions; regulatory compliance across HIPAA/HITECH, Stark law, fraud and abuse, and certificate-of-need requirements; corporate governance and payor contracting; and complex investigations, self-reporting, and settlements.

Clients span the breadth of the industry — teaching and acute care hospitals, physician groups, nursing facilities, continuing care retirement communities, home health agencies, hospices, ambulatory surgery centers, clinical laboratories, mental health centers, and the trade associations that represent them.

When the regulatory landscape shifts, when an investigation arises, or when a strategic transaction demands careful navigation, the team is ready.
