Description | Mr. Schulze is a managing partner of the firm. He has practiced healthcare law on exclusive basis since graduating from Tulane University School of Law in 1998. He regularly represents acute care, rural, psychiatric, critical access, long term acute care and rehabilitation hospitals, physician practices, skilled nursing facilities, home health and other providers both locally and nationally on a wide variety of federal and state healthcare issues. A significant portion of Mr. Schulze’s practice involves counseling clients regarding compliance and defending clients in government investigations involving anti-kickback, Stark law and false claims act allegations as well as in RAC, ZPIC and other provider audits. Drawing on the insight gained through his audit and investigation defense work, Mr. Schulze regularly assists clients with evaluating potential compliance issues, conducting internal investigations, reviewing possible self-disclosures and implementing and auditing practical, efficient and effective compliance programs tailored to the particular client’s operations and needs. He has worked extensively with providers and physicians on entity financing, formation, licensure and enrollment; transactions; and negotiating and drafting joint-venture, employment, recruitment, medical director and other financial arrangements that comply with the Stark II and Anti-Kickback laws and regulations. Mr. Schulze also routinely advises facilities on conditions of participation, Medicare and Medicaid issues, governing board bylaws, medical staff bylaws, provider based entity attestations and other operational matters.
