Health Professional Societies and Associations
SNR Denton’s health care lawyers have extensive experience
representing health care professional societies and associations,
including medical specialty societies, associations of health
insurers, health care information technology associations, national
and state hospital associations, and state associations of
physician groups.
Specifically, we advise these entities regarding:
- the development of corporate
governance structures and acquisition of federal and state
tax exemptions;
- the full range of public
policy issues, including those relating to reimbursement policy,
fraud and abuse and medical privacy. In connection with such
representations, SNR Denton lawyers draft regulatory comments,
prepare draft legislation and develop briefing
materials;
- various antitrust
issues;
- the development and
implementation of strategies to advocate client positions and
facilitation of discussions with relevant governmental
agencies;
- complex policy and business
arrangements between association members and the federal
government; and
- the formulation of positions
and participation as policy counsel during meetings with both
executive branch and Congressional staff.
