Overview
Federal and State Government involvement in regulation of long-term care is significantly more aggressive than in any other segment of the healthcare delivery system. Regulation is so extensive, the long-term care industry has come to be called in government lingo what is known as a “closely regulated business.” In addition, the results of these regulatory supervision and inspection actions are widely available public records, which can make a real impact in litigation.
At HBSS, we understand the liability implications created by this heightened regulatory environment. We recognize the issues facing long-term care providers and can predict and track trends that shape the industry. We’ve built this knowledge and expertise through a focused familiarity with long-term care clients; in fact, most of the members of the long term care group are completely specialized, only representing long-term care providers.
This dedication, focus and experience gives our attorneys a real edge.
Our long-term care attorneys are familiar with the latest regulatory changes that might impact litigation and constantly monitor development in other states to best gauge our approach in Georgia. We speak at the state and national level and frequently consult on out-of-state cases.
In short, we believe that by dedicating a team of committed professionals to focus on the long-term care industry, we can attain favorable outcomes for our clients. We actively represent:
