Health Care Law

At MDRXLaw – Sauchik & Giyaur, P.C., we represent healthcare providers, pharmacies, and medical businesses in complex legal, regulatory, and business matters. Our practice spans healthcare compliance, pharmacy law, licensing disputes, PBM audits and arbitrations, Medicaid and Medicare investigations, and healthcare litigation in state and federal courts.

With deep experience in New York, New Jersey, and other key jurisdictions, we help independent pharmacies, medical practices, laboratories, and other healthcare entities navigate the constantly changing landscape of federal and state healthcare regulations. We also defend providers in administrative proceedings, Article 78 petitions, and disciplinary actions before licensing boards.

Whether you are facing a PBM contract termination, a Medicaid clawback, an insurance audit, or need proactive compliance strategies to protect your business, our team delivers practical, results-driven solutions grounded in industry knowledge and litigation experience.

OUR EXPERIENCE

The healthcare industry is one of the most regulated in the nation. For physicians, pharmacists, and healthcare entrepreneurs, and countless other players in the healthcare delivery world, navigating the labyrinth of federal and state law is not just a matter of good business—it is essential for survival. At MDRXLaw, we don't just understand the law; we understand the practitioner's world. Our firm was built to operate at the unique intersection of medicine and law, providing sophisticated legal guidance grounded in real-world experience.

We serve as strategic partners to our clients, offering proactive counsel to mitigate risk and aggressive advocacy when careers and businesses are on the line. Our deep experience spans the full spectrum of healthcare law, allowing us to provide comprehensive support tailored to the specific needs of your practice or enterprise.

Our Core Areas of Experience Include:

  • Regulatory & Compliance: We provide relevant, timely, and practical guidance on the complex web of laws governing healthcare operations. Our team ensures clients are in full compliance with the Stark Law, the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS), the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and state-specific regulations to prevent costly violations and government scrutiny.

  • Professional Licensing & Disciplinary Actions: Your professional license is your most valuable asset. We vigorously defend physicians, pharmacists, and other licensed professionals before state licensing boards (e.g., State Medical Boards, Boards of Pharmacy), handling matters from initial investigations and formal accusations to administrative hearings and appeals.

  • Government & Payer Audits and Investigations: We represent providers facing audits and investigations from government agencies—including the Department of Justice (DOJ), the Office of Inspector General (OIG), and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA)—as well as from private payers and Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs). We are adept at managing responses to subpoenas, civil investigative demands (CIDs), and defending against allegations of fraud and abuse.

  • Healthcare Transactions & Corporate Law: From practice formation to complex mergers and acquisitions, we provide the corporate legal framework for success. Our services include drafting and negotiating physician employment agreements, structuring management services organizations (MSOs), ensuring compliance in joint ventures, and handling the purchase and sale of medical practices and pharmacies.

  • Pharmacy Law & Regulation: With a specific focus on the "RX" in our name, we have a nuanced understanding of the challenges facing independent and specialty pharmacies. We counsel clients on PBM audits and credentialing, compounding regulations, DEA compliance, and the unique business and regulatory issues inherent to the pharmacy space.

At MDRXLaw, our counsel is more than theoretical. It is practical, actionable, and always aligned with your goals. We partner with you to build, protect, and defend your life's work.
