Why RHP

Health care providers operate in a constantly evolving environment with increasingly complex regulatory requirements and demands. Patient care involves many groups and organizations other than a doctor's office or hospital. Ambulance companies, medical device manufacturers, diagnostic laboratories, and other health care institutions look to RHP for effective, knowledgeable legal counsel and representation. 

RHP’s health care attorneys have a remarkable depth and breadth of understanding, experience and proven effectiveness in civil litigation involving health care clients. They bring to the table extensive knowledge and experience with hospitals, clinics, acute care facilities, and long term and short-term patient care facilities. The firm’s attorneys have the experience and knowledge to fully understand and execute the best strategy for achieving favorable results in matters involving disability law, elder law, health care conservatorships, general hospital law, and professional liability law. The firm’s attorneys have represented all types of medical professionals including physicians, nurses, and therapists. 

RHP is nationally recognized for its representation of hospitals in claims against insurers seeking reimbursement of disputed hospital bills. Our attorneys represent a national for-profit hospital corporation in multiple jurisdictions asserting reimbursement claims. More often than not, these cases involve claims for reimbursement of very large unpaid hospital bills incurred by patients.

RHP’s attorneys have successfully obtained full reimbursement for its clients and collected multiple millions of dollars in these cases. The firm's attorneys engaged in this practice have been invited to make presentations about this area of practice at meetings and seminars in this country and internationally.
