GW’s Health Care Practice
Group provides advice on general commercial matters
(including contracts, mergers, acquisitions,
consolidations, corporate reorganizations, joint
ventures, alternative delivery systems, home health
care, tax matters, real estate and corporate matters)
and regulatory matters (such as governmental regulation,
managed care, antitrust, practice plan arrangements,
medical staff relations and third party reimbursement).
The Health Care Practice Group focuses on the business
of the health care industry. Given the continuing
changes in the regulatory environment and the challenges
facing our clients in an increasingly competitive
environment, GW is highly qualified to advise our
clients in the following representative areas:
- Federal and State
law regulatory compliance
- Mergers and
acquisitions
- In addition to the
usual buying and selling of entities and properties,
we have advised most of the major health care
systems in the metropolitan area concerning their
formation and the adding or spinning off of
hospitals, nursing homes and other providers
- Business structuring
— corporations, limited liability companies,
partnerships, etc.
- Managed care and
other third-party payor contracting and dispute
resolution
- GW has negotiated
major fee-for-service and risk agreements for health
care systems, community hospitals, IPAs,
multi-specialty groups and other providers with
major managed care providers, including Empire Blue
Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, United Healthcare, Oxford
Health Plans, Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield, CIGNA
and other managed care organizations
- GW has negotiated a
statewide settlement for providers with an HMO that
was on the verge of bankruptcy
- GW has assisted in
the formation and regulatory compliance of IPAs and
related managed care contracting entities
- Strategic planning
- Medicare and
Medicaid compliance, audit and reimbursement appeals
