Why should you attend?

As health care organizations and physicians develop lease arrangements, they must manage their compliance and enterprise risk by ensuring that their leases are defensible under the Stark Law.  
Prior to moving forward with any leasing arrangement, the parties should carefully evaluate whether the proposed structure and financial terms support compliance with Stark’s technical requirements and key tenets of defensibility so they will be prepared to mount a defense in the event the lease is ever challenged.
This webinar will focus on the Stark Law's underlying technical requirements and key tenets of defensibility as they apply to leasing arrangements.
