As a health care attorney, your duties are to advise hospitals and physicians on how to maintain compliance with all federal health care laws that dictate their industries. These include the Stark Law, which bars physicians from self-referral, the Anti-kickback Statute, which prevents exchanging referrals for monetary gain, the False Claims Act, EMTALA, which mandates medical care facilities provide treatment regardless of ability to pay, and numerous patient privacy laws, such as HIPAA. Your responsibilities require you to work with other compliance professionals to audit hospital and physician operations and help the facility address any violations to statutes.
