Lashly & Baer, P.C., has been on the forefront of the emergence of ancillary providers such as nurse practitioners and physician assistants, including the representation of the state nursing association and the drafting of the state collaborative practice agreements. We also represent ancillary providers such as durable medical equipment (DME) suppliers, physical and occupational therapists, dietitians, psychologists and counselors.

Some of our health care provider clients choose to build or purchase their own facilities. Lashly & Baer, P.C., has counseled these clients on financing, zoning, purchase and related regulatory issues. We regularly negotiate the lease of space in medical buildings on behalf of both landlords and tenants.

Health care and technology are synonymous these days. We have negotiated hundreds of software license and related technology contracts, including EMR and billing software. We also represent many clients that provide services to the health care industry, such as practice management and billing companies. In this representation, we have become immersed in reimbursement issues, which knowledge we pass on to our clients to help increase their bottom line.

In response to medical malpractice insurance crisis issues, we have structured alternatives to traditional professional liability insurance such as self-funded trusts and retention arrangements. In connection with our estate planning attorneys, we regularly counsel our clients on personal planning issues such as estate tax planning, asset protection and charitable giving.
