Healthcare Practices
Healthcare providers and medical device manufacturers take the complaints and concerns of patients seriously, and at Tressler, so do we. We understand the reputation and character of our clients must be protected while addressing concerns raised by patients. We listen to the needs and concerns of our health care clients to develop an appropriate response and to deliver desired results. Tressler attorneys have represented hospitals, medical device manufacturers and suppliers, physicians, nurses, dentists, medical groups, nursing homes and other medical providers in courtrooms throughout Illinois. Our attorneys are trial-tested and prepared to creatively defend any lawsuit.
In addition to representing healthcare providers in actions brought by patients, Tressler attorneys have also represented hospitals and other healthcare providers in labor and employment matters, including employment discrimination claims, employment regulatory claim and unfair labor practice claims, arbitration of union grievances and negotiation of union contracts.
Tressler attorneys also represent healthcare trade associations, including acting as general counsel for medical specialty boards.
Additionally, healthcare providers practice today in a highly complex world of third-party payors with managed care contracts, overlapping networks of preferred providers and suppliers, and hospitals with conflicting medical staff rules and requirements, all while meeting the demands of various governmental regulations (e.g. Medicare, Medicaid and HIPAA). Tressler attorneys draw on their vast experience handling regulatory and insurance coverage matters to assist our clients in navigating this maze of contractual and regulatory obligations.
