Compliance

Panza Maurer and Maynard lawyers know Compliance Law and are experienced in representing clients in compliance matters involving corporate governance, allegations of business and accounting fraud, and health care fraud and abuse.  Our team recognizes the value clients receive by avoiding potential fraud and abuse issues. We frequently assist our clients in the negotiation and crafting of business transactions that minimize fraud and abuse risks. Our experience ranges from the development, implementation and maintenance of corporate-wide ethics and compliance programs to undertaking internal compliance audits and investigations focused on identified fraud risk areas.  The firm’s attorneys are experienced in conducting these complex investigations in a thorough and discreet manner.

PMM’s lawyers also specialize in representing health care providers, and health care facilities. Our health care compliance practice focuses on assisting and advising our clients on issues related to accreditation, licensing and certification; clinical trials and research; fraud and abuse, including physician self-referral and anti-kickback; health information technology and electronic health records; Medicare, Medicaid and Commercial Payor coverage and payment; HIPAA privacy and security compliance; and state and federal audits and investigations. Additionally our team also conducts healthcare transactional work, including physician employment and consulting contracts and purchasing and leasing arrangements, in compliance with state and federal laws.

Our firm’s lawyers maintain a close watch over new legal developments in the health care regulatory field, and provide clients with updates on these new initiatives and how they may affect our clients’ businesses through frequent client alerts, client conferences, and other media.
