Health Care Compliance

Health care compliance matters can directly impact a provider’s license, reputation, and ability to practice. Keogh Cox represents physicians, nurses, pharmacists, therapists, and other healthcare professionals in regulatory, licensing, and disciplinary proceedings across Louisiana.

We regularly appear before the Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners and other licensing bodies, guiding clients through investigations, hearings, and administrative actions. Our approach focuses on understanding the underlying issue, protecting professional standing, and resolving matters as efficiently as possible.

In addition to defense, we advise healthcare providers, employers, and insurers on compliance issues before they escalate. Our team brings both legal and clinical perspective, including a lawyer who is also a Registered Nurse with specialized training in healthcare compliance, allowing us to address these matters with practical insight.

Our work includes:

• Representation in licensing board investigations and disciplinary proceedings
• Defense of certification, licensing, and regulatory compliance issues
• Matters involving impaired professionals and professional conduct allegations
• Supervision and professional relationship disputes
• Compliance with federal healthcare regulations, including Stark Law and Anti-Kickback provisions
• Civil False Claims Act matters
• Governance and corporate responsibility issues
• EMTALA and HIPAA compliance concerns

Keogh Cox provides clear, steady guidance in complex healthcare compliance matters, helping providers protect their licenses, their practice, and their future.
