Health Care Litigation

Defended a hospital and health system in a qui tam lawsuit filed by an employed physician. The lawsuit involved claims that the system submitted false claims to Medicare and Medicaid by billing for services that did not comply with the applicable National Coverage Determination. The suit was ultimately settled and dismissed.

Achieved dismissal of a disgruntled surgeon’s lawsuit against a hospital that had revoked his privileges following peer review.  The First District Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court’s decision to grant our client’s motion to dismiss, reasoning that Ohio’s peer review statutes conferred immunity upon the hospital.

Earned a substantial victory on behalf of multiple health care clients and a statewide association of hospitals after the court rendered a decision declaring a price transparency law unconstitutional. This final victory came over three years after the court granted a temporary restraining order against the enforcement of the law, allowing our clients to litigate its merit.
