Professional Care Services, Licensure and Product Development

Professional Services Establishments and Operations

We handle issues with your professional licenses, the choice of your business name and type of practice entity, in addition to credentialing, staffing, regulatory compliance, corrective action plans, and the unique formation and operational challenges of professionals offering care products and services in New York.  

Business Ownership and Transfer

We assist clients with buying, selling, expanding, merging and winding down professional service business properties and entities. Whether you are looking to buy or sell a practice, merge with other partners, license your property or retire, we will be by your side, making sure you can comply with the laws specific to entities delivering professional products and services at every stage of your career.  

Health Care Operations

Health care is a heavily regulated industry. We understand the unique business needs of health care professionals. Professionals delivering products and services in health care fields require specialized knowledge. We are familiar with your federal and state regulations including HIPAA, HITECH, Stark, Anti-Kickback, Excluded Persons, and the False Claims Act, to name just a few.  

Provider Inspections, Audits and Appeals

We represent care providers and their business associates in state, federal, intermediary and third-party inspections and findings, licensing hearings, payer audits and payment matters. We handle provider issues including quality and sufficiency of documentation, payment regulations, compliance rules and contracts. We appeal administrative findings of violations, overpayments, claw backs, claims downgrades, desk and procedural audits and allegations of fraud and abusive billing practices. We represent care providers seeking fair payment for services rendered, documentation-sufficiency matters, provider credentialing and coverage determinations.  

Employment Contracts, Credentials and Compliance

Our lawyers assist care providers with issues of credentialing, scope of license activities, requirements, conduct and contract matters. We advise on excluded persons compliance, physician advertising, professional use of social media, accepting side employment, consulting, supervising, medical director contracts, telemedicine, non-compete, non-disclosure and non-solicitation agreements, staff recruitment, regulatorily mandated staff training, policies and procedures, whistleblowers and more. When you have care employment questions, we have answers.

In short, we represent clients in matters before state and federal courts, arbitrations, administrative proceedings, hearings and other forums. We are here to discuss your professional licensed business needs.
