Healthcare
In an industry driven by a constantly changing regulatory and enforcement environment, healthcare clients require experienced counsel to navigate the complex framework that drives their businesses. We can help you meet those challenges.
About
Healthcare is a driving force in the national economy, with healthcare spending accounting for nearly 20 percent of US GDP in 2021. In response, the healthcare industry continues to rapidly evolve in an increasingly complex regulatory environment. Healthcare delivery and reimbursement is shifting away from the traditional fee-for-service delivery model towards value-based care and vertical consolidation. Telehealth and other digital healthcare solutions are here to stay, fundamentally transforming the doctor-patient relationship. Private equity continues to invest billions of dollars into the healthcare industry, with hospitals and health systems vying to compete in a changing marketplace.
Our team has the depth of experience and expertise to help our clients strategically navigate these challenges and address ongoing, day-to-day obstacles. Our cross-disciplinary teams are effective, efficient and cost-effective, and our level of personal service is unsurpassed.
