Our Approach

Since the industry’s inception, our Digital Health Practice has been at the forefront of advising innovation leaders in transactions involving an array of technologies. We've counseled companies delivering EHRs, telemedicine, e-prescribing systems, pharmacy benefit solutions, data analytics, and business intelligence. And we've worked with health insurance exchanges, and developers of lab interfaces, diagnostics and imaging systems, clinical trial and research tools, patient engagement tools, and systems for population, care, and disease management. The breadth of our health care, FDA, corporate, intellectual property, and technology experience is exceptional. And it has given us the opportunity to work with national providers and technology innovators across the digital health industry.
