Counsel
Doug knows that his clients simply want to get the deal done. He starts by working to understand their objectives so he can help them navigate the transaction and find common ground with their counterpart. This is especially critical with transactions in the highly regulated health care industry.
Douglas E. Menikheim is counsel in the firm’s Health Services Practice Group. He focuses his practice on representing and advising health care clients in connection with a variety of corporate transactions, including entity formation, private equity investments (including platform acquisitions, add-on transactions, and exits), mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures, private placements and other strategic transactions. In addition, he advises clients with respect to day-to-day corporate governance matters and commercial contracts.
Doug represents private equity funds investing in management service organizations (MSOs) and dental service organizations (DSOs). His work includes the roll-up of physician practices, university medical centers with physician practice acquisitions, acquisitions of assisted living facilities and licensed home care service agencies, and physician practices. He also works with regulatory counsel to advise clients on compliant acquisition structures in corporate practice and non-corporate practice of medicine jurisdictions, regulatory issues under fraud and abuse laws (including the federal Anti-Kickback statute and related safe harbors), the Stark Law, the federal False Claims Act, HIPAA, and other applicable laws and regulations.
