Dealing with distress in the healthcare industry in the new administration

12 - 1 p.m.

In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare environment, heightened scrutiny and regulatory changes present unique challenges for industry professionals. This year has already seen 4 hospital systems file bankruptcy cases, including Prospect Medical Holdings with 16 hospitals nationwide. Expected cuts in Medicaid budget outlays, increased regulatory oversight, particularly by state Attorney Generals over mergers and acquisitions, and increasing focus on finding “fraud, waste and abuse” all will contribute to financial difficulties in the healthcare industry in general and the hospital sector in particular. Join our speakers, Samuel R. Maizel, and Tania M. Moyron as they explore essential strategies and practices necessary to navigate the increasingly stringent regulatory environment and increasing financial difficulties facing hospitals. Attendees will gain valuable insights into recent legal decisions which allow hospital owners, sellers and buyers, to more effectively manage mergers and acquisitions, compliance, risk management, and strategic planning, all tailored to the current dynamics of the healthcare sector.
