The recent case involving Sumter, S.C.-based Tuomey Healthcare System — in which the system was ordered to pay roughly $237 million in fines for violating the Stark Law and the False Claims Act — is rife with learning opportunities for healthcare executives, litigation and general counsel, compliance officers and consultants alike.
This seminal case involved 19 part-time employment agreements between Tuomey and specialists. The outcome of the case has broad implications going forward for structuring physician arrangements.
McGuireWoods Partner Scott Becker and Associate Holly Carnell will host a teleconference on the fascinating case and its potential implications for other healthcare providers on Aug. 13, from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. (ET). To register, click here.
