Healthcare Practice

Bates White’s Healthcare Practice consists of economists, academicians, and experts who possess a deep understanding of the healthcare industry and combine this knowledge with expertise in other areas such as antitrust, mergers and acquisitions, product liability, and intellectual property to provide expert testimony, consulting, and litigation support. Our approach involves meticulous data analysis and statistical modeling, and our clients gain a significant advantage from our ability to explain our methodologies and present our conclusions clearly and effectively.

Our deep knowledge of the healthcare industry, familiarity with key legal issues, and formidable analytic and communications capabilities enable us to understand the issues that face all types of industry participants, including

  • Public and private payors
  • Physicians, hospitals, surgery centers, pharmacies, and other providers
  • Pharmaceutical, biological, and medical device manufacturers
  • Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), Group Purchasing Organizations (GPOs), and other healthcare intermediaries
  • The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Veteran’s Administration (VA), and other government entities

Our professionals have extensive experience examining mergers and acquisitions of payers and providers, as well as allegations of exclusionary conduct in healthcare markets. This experience includes providing antitrust analysis on matters involving health insurers and healthcare providers on behalf and in front of the DOJ and FTC. Our experts regularly consult on issues such as geographic market definition and hospital market power and pricing for proposed healthcare mergers.

As our clients seek opportunities and respond to litigation in the evolving global healthcare marketplace, they know our approaches to their challenges will be rigorous, defensible, and thorough.
