Home / Practice Areas / Health Care

Our health care practice primarily involves certificate of need work, state licensing issues and the formation and sale of practices.

Robinson & McElwee’s health care practice also handles matters relating to employment contracts, leases, HIPAA compliance and state laws relating to disclosure of medical information.

In licensing matters for health care professionals, our attorneys practice before the West Virginia Health Care Authority, West Virginia Board of Medicine, West Virginia Board of Examiners of Psychologists and West Virginia Board of Dental Examiners.

Our attorneys represent:

  • Physicians
  • Dentists
  • Pharmacists
  • Counselors
  • Therapists
  • Other  health care providers, hospitals and clinics

It has been our experience that our health care clients benefit greatly from our other practice groups such as commercial law, employment law, leasing, construction and finance.
