Episode Description
McGuireWoods partner and host Geoff Cockrell invites Government Investigations & White Collar Litigation partners Mindy Sauter and Mike Elliott to discuss compliance and regulatory challenges within private equity healthcare investments. As Mindy explains, private equity groups are sensitive to compliance issues because they bring in individual entities that tend to function in a siloed manner.
The ideal member of the private equity group's board is someone with healthcare experience who will look at the appropriate type of oversight of compliance functions, says Mike. In the new administration, Mike anticipates an increased push toward investigating antitrust violations, while Mindy suggests that investigations into healthcare fraud, waste and abuse will remain consistent with the current landscape.
