Florida Healthcare Law Firm Announces New Telehealth & Telemedicine Law Division

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. - Oct. 5, 2017 - PRLog -- The Florida Healthcare Law Firm based in Delray Beach, FL is proud to announce an industry leading new resource for the rapidly evolving telehealth and telemedicine space. "Telehealth is emerging at an increasingly rapid pace as the nexus between medical care, technology and cost savings," explains Attorney Jeff Cohen, who is board certified as a specialist in healthcare law and founded the Firm in 2008.

The Firm's telehealth division will include team members Attorney Karina Gonzalez, Attorney Susan St. John and Attorney Jacqueline Bain. Gonzalez joined the firm 4 years ago after many years working "inside" payors and leads the charge on payor issues for firm clients. Both Susan St. John and Jacqueline Bain are well rounded attorneys with deep roots in healthcare compliance. St. John was a reimbursement manager for a large hospital and Bain is Certified in Healthcare Compliance through HCCA and recently developed the comprehensive RiskShield Tools compliance program for the Firm.

While telemedicine regulation and law is driven at the federal level, the developing areas of law are more dynamic at the state level.

Given our extensive experience and exclusive focus on health law, we see where healthcare is headed; and we are working closely with many around the country who have caught the wave of telehealth."
