Senior Living
We counsel clients in all legal aspects of the acquisition or establishment, operation, and sale of senior living provider entities. Our clients include independent living facilities, assisted living facilities (ALFs), skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs), and hospice and home health providers.
With respect to acquisitions and sales, we help clients obtain the strongest position on items of particular significance to acquisitions involving long-term care providers. These include sellerโs representations and warranties regarding compliance with the Federal Stark, Anti-Kickback and HIPAA statutes; licensure and certificate of need requirements; the billing of private and governmental payors; and sellerโs indemnification obligations in the event of a contract or warranty breach.
We work on an ongoing basis with senior living providers to ensure their operations comply with the complex maze of federal and state laws and regulations affecting their day-to-day operations. We also work with provider entities to address their human resource needs, including benefit plan compliance and employment-related litigation.
