Factors to Consider When Entering a Health Care Practice Partnership Agreement
The health care profession is arguably the most heavily regulated among all professional practices and therefore demands considerations that go far beyond those of general business concerns when entering into a health care partnership agreement. In addition to general business considerations, health care partnership agreements must be reviewed with a focus on issues concerning the Anti-Kickback Statute, the False Claims Act and the Stark Law.
If you are considering entering a health care partnership agreement or have already entered a health care partnership agreement and would like to ensure that you are complying with all applicable federal and state government regulations, you must review and evaluate the following factors and potential provisions with an experienced health care attorney:
(a) Professional service requirements;
(b) Compensation structure;
(c) Administrative and managerial responsibilities;
(d) Maintenance of medical charts and records;
(e) Compliance provisions;
(f) Internal audit and review provisions;
(g) Location arrangements;
(h) Non-compete and non-disparagement provisions;
(i) Indemnification provisions; and
(j) Termination provisions
