HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) Compliance

The privacy and security of patient health information are paramount. HIPAA sets the standard for safeguarding this sensitive data. At Dike Law Group, we provide expert guidance on HIPAA compliance, helping you establish and maintain the necessary policies, procedures, and training to protect patient information. We offer comprehensive assessments, risk management strategies, and assistance with breach notifications, ensuring your healthcare business operates within the boundaries of HIPAA.

Stark Law Compliance

Stark Law, also known as the Physician Self-Referral Law, prohibits healthcare providers from referring patients to entities with which they have a financial relationship. Compliance with Stark Law is essential to avoid legal complications and financial penalties. Our legal experts offer guidance to structure financial relationships within the bounds of Stark Law, conduct audits, and establish compliance programs to mitigate the risk of non-compliance.

Credentialing

Healthcare providers must meet rigorous standards to practice, and credentialing is the process that verifies their qualifications, training, and experience. Our legal team assists healthcare organizations and practitioners in navigating the credentialing process, ensuring that your providers meet the requirements of healthcare facilities and insurance companies. We streamline the often complex credentialing process, helping you save time and maintain compliance.

State Healthcare Compliance

In addition to federal regulations, healthcare providers must also adhere to state-specific health laws. State regulations can vary widely, and our legal team is well-versed in the intricacies of state health law compliance. We ensure that your healthcare business is aligned with state-specific requirements, enabling you to navigate the complexity of local regulations while upholding the highest standards of care.
