Health Care

Clients in the health care field operate in one of the most heavily regulated industries. These clients face a constant stream of unique legal challenges due to the myriad of state and federal laws that regulate their operations and affect their business decisions.  Health care clients must comply with complex laws and regulations that govern nearly every aspect of their practice. Health care laws are often not intuitive, so even a diligent health care practitioner can inadvertently misstep, and face serious legal, even criminal, consequences. In the health care arena, it is essential to have knowledgeable and experienced legal counsel to advise your organization.

MacDonald Illig's Health Care attorneys have the knowledge and experience to handle a wide variety of health care matters for your practice. Our attorneys partner with you to provide sophisticated yet practical advice and guidance for your health care practice. In the event that you or your practice faces allegations of misconduct, our team will walk alongside you through the process of either settlement, or litigation, of the claim. We are not only advisors, but trusted partners. 

Experience Your Practice Can Count On

MacDonald Illig's Health Care Practice Group has experience in representing clients across all areas of the health care arena, including large hospital systems, medical staffs, physicians and other practitioners, physician groups, dentists, clinics, long-term care facilities, continuing care facilities or retirement communities, social service agencies, and other health care providers.

Our Health Care Practice Group routinely handles a broad spectrum of health care related matters. We counsel clients regarding health care compliance, whether at the state or federal level, including but not limited to the Stark Law and the Anti-Kickback Law analysis and compliance, medical billing and payment or reimbursement rules, and HIPAA and other medical record and patient confidentiality and security matters.  We assist clients with quality of care issues and patient safety and risk management matters, which may include, among other things, credentialing, peer review, and disciplinary and fair hearing proceedings. We assist practices with physician recruitment and compensation matters as well as legally structuring group practices, joint ventures, and other arrangements between providers. Our attorneys also have proficiency in structuring health care transactions to ensure legal compliance. 

In addition, our clients have the benefit of drawing upon a wealth of legal resources from MacDonald Illig's many other distinguished practice areas such as Labor & Employment, Business Transactions, Real Estate, and Tax Planning & Representation.
