Value-Based Care

Further, we have counseled numerous healthcare providers on the transition to VBC and represent many entities engaged in VBC programs on regulatory, tax, real estate, and intellectual property matters related to the integrated partnership of provider stakeholders engaged in VBC arrangements with governmental and private commercial payors. Our experience spans the gamut of provider types including post-acute, acute-care, physician providers, and specialty care such as renal care.

Our attorneys regularly advise executives, operators, and investors in VBC and population management organizations on regulatory and critical business and policy issues facing companies in this space. We are adept at providing guidance on best practices in structuring a value-based enterprise and negotiating value-based contracts from both a regulatory and a contractual perspective. Our representation includes structuring and organization, agreement review, economic analyses, data use and sharing.  As VBC arrangements may implicate the Anti-Kickback Statute, physician self-referral laws and other associated risks, we routinely provide guidance to clients on compliance with safe harbors and exceptions promulgated to facilitate care coordination and risk sharing.
