Tips for Successful Joint Ventures and Mergers

In this on-demand CME video, healthcare attorney Amanda Hill, founder of Guard My Practice, explains what physicians and medical practice owners need to know before entering a joint venture, merger, or other corporate healthcare arrangement. While joint ventures and mergers can create cost savings and stronger negotiating power, they also carry significant legal, compliance, and tax risks if not structured correctly.

This session covers the critical legal and financial considerations involved in healthcare joint ventures, including letters of intent (LOIs), defining roles and responsibilities, anti-kickback statute compliance, operating agreements, tax implications, and exit strategies. Drawing on more than 20 years of experience representing physicians, Amanda outlines common red flags identified by the Office of Inspector General (OIG) and explains how improper structures can lead to fraud and abuse exposure.

Designed for independent physicians, group practices, and practice owners, this video provides practical guidance to help you evaluate potential partnerships, protect your practice, and enter joint ventures with confidence.
