Kennedy, Attorneys & Counselors at Law

We are a small firm by design – six experienced attorneys with a goal of providing our healthcare provider and practitioner clients close and personal attention on their legal matters. Our attorneys have extensive experience in their areas of specialty or concentration. The firm’s founder was formerly counsel to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Serv

ices (formerly HCFA) and Office of Inspector General. We keep abreast of government and industry developments affecting our healthcare clients. Our firm is a health law boutique. While we provide a wide array of legal services, our practice is devoted to health law, with an emphasis in the representation of healthcare providers and practitioners participating in federal and state healthcare programs. We do our best to keep clients out of trouble in the heavily regulated healthcare industry. The scope of work we perform for our clients encompasses five broad categories: provider reimbursement and payment issues; health standards and quality enforcement in survey and certification; issues related to fraud and abuse sanctions, representation before professional licensing boards, and day-to-day business issues such as contracts and employment law. We represent our clients in state and federal court, before administrative tribunals and forums, and in appeals. We have a national practice and assist clients (and their local counsel) across the country. With respect to services not offered by our firm, we have established relationships with attorneys who provide such services, and with the permission of the client, we consult with them to ensure that issues are properly resolved. Our practice is national in scope and so we are able to work with clients (and their local counsel) all over the country handling:

•Medicare and Medicaid matters
•Provider reimbursement and payment issues
•Health standards and quality enforcement in survey and certification
•Issues related to fraud and abuse sanctions
•Representation before professional licensing boards
•Day-to-day business issues with contracts, employment law, etc.
•STARK / anti-kickback issues and review
•Sale, mergers, and acquisitions of healthcare and other businesses
•Corporate compliance programs


(For services not offered by our firm, we have established relationships with attorneys that do provide those services and, upon permission, will be happy to consult with them to ensure that all client issues are properly resolved.).
