Healthcare and Nursing Administration
Hospitals seeking to expand their services, physician practices seeking to merge or build new medical centers, or nursing homes seeking to enter new markets are all examples of healthcare businesses in need of legal representation. Simmons Law Group has been handling these matters, and other administrative and legal issues involving healthcare professionals, before the Mississippi Department of Health and the various courts in Mississippi for many years.
Legal actions involving appeals from administrative agencies, healthcare antitrust issues, Certificate of Need (CON) representation before the Mississippi Department of Health, mergers and acquisitions, physician contracts, litigation over services, non-compete agreements, or responding to subpoenas issued in CON matters are all areas of legal representation covered by Simmons Law Group.
From our office in Jackson, Mississippi, we have represented Columbia HCA, Methodist Healthcare and Community Health Systems. We are also proud to represent individuals in contract negotiation, non-compete agreements, or general employment contract disputes.
