In the negotiation of a recent significant settlement on behalf of a client with several US Attorneys’ Offices and the Department of Justice, Karen successfully negotiated no admission of liability and no corporate integrity agreement.
Karen draws upon her regulatory counseling and health care enforcement experience to provide practical advice on health care regulatory transactions, including the assessment of risk, appropriately tailored reps and warranties, and the negotiation of R&W insurance exclusions. Karen serves as regulatory counsel to private equity firms, other investors, and health care companies in mergers, acquisitions, and other transactional matters. She leads complex due diligence projects for these entities across a vast array of industry areas, including behavioral health, laboratories, diagnostic companies, hospice and home health providers, and benefit management companies.
Karen also specializes in the representation of laboratories and diagnostics companies. She regularly counsels on compliance with CLIA and state laboratory licensure laws, federal and state limitations on billing for diagnostic services, and legal restrictions on sales and marketing activities. Karen has served as regulatory counsel in a number of mergers and acquisitions involving laboratories and diagnostics companies and has represented numerous laboratories and diagnostics companies in state and federal government investigations.
She is a frequent author and speaker on regulatory and compliance issues confronting the industry and editor of the firm’s Health Care Viewpoints.
