      Practices

    Medicare & Medicaid & Other Government Payors

    Nixon Peabody partners with our clients to optimize their opportunities and minimize their risks under Medicare, Medicaid, and other government payment programs.

    /Overview

    Healthcare providers, physicians, and suppliers heavily rely on Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements, which constitute a significant portion of their revenue. However, the continuously evolving rules and regulations surrounding healthcare reimbursement issues pose constant challenges. Our Medicare attorney and Medicaid attorneys at Nixon Peabody can partner with you to navigate this complex and fast-moving environment.

    With extensive experience in Medicare litigation and healthcare reimbursements, coupled with our strong relationships with Medicare administrative contractors, officials in the offices of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), and state Medicaid agencies enables us to find answers quickly and achieve the right results for our clients. In the event of an audit, administrative hearing, or need to prosecute appeals, our team is experienced at standing before the Provider Reimbursement Review Board, in administrator’s review, and in judicial proceedings.

    /Representative experience

    • Health system: Advised on its administrative appeal to the California Department of Healthcare Services (DHCS) to enroll the health system’s 1206(g) medical clinic in the Medi-Cal program
