Andrew Brenton

Career

With a deep understanding of healthcare law, Andrew focuses his practice on helping clients in the hospice, palliative care, and post-acute care sectors.

Andrew is part of the firm’s coast-to-coast Hospice & Palliative Care Team, working with clients on a broad range of healthcare regulatory compliance issues, including those related to Medicare regulations, provider enrollment rules, and fraud and abuse laws like the federal False Claims Act and Anti-Kickback Statute. He answers questions that otherwise might keep clients awake at night. Andrew and the team also help navigate clients through a wide range of government audits and claim review, fraud and repayment investigations, provider and payor contracting issues, and transactional and restructuring matters.

Clients appreciate Andrew’s background as in-house counsel for the Wisconsin Hospital Association, where he monitored changing state and federal legislation and rulemaking and how they influenced healthcare providers. In that position, Andrew handled contracting, compliance, governance, and healthcare policy matters, including issues related to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and data privacy, telehealth, and meaningful use of electronic health records. He advocates for clients so they can stay focused on their patient care missions.
