Crowell & Moring Launches Health Care Podcast Series

Washington – June 26, 2019: Crowell & Moring has launched a biweekly health care podcast series entitled Payers, Providers, and Patients – Oh My! The podcast covers legal and regulatory issues that affect in-house counsel, executives, and investors at health care companies.

Each twenty-minute episode features a conversation with a guest about a hot topic in health care law. For example, in the first episode John T. Brennan, Jr., a partner in the firm’s Health Care Group, addresses what health care companies need to know about the False Claims Act dismissals under the Granston memo. He notes, “we need to watch this space carefully to see how the courts react to the government’s, DOJ’s more aggressive efforts to dismiss these cases.” Upcoming episodes include a discussion about ERISA and potential liability for plan fiduciaries with David McFarlane and Samuel W. Krause, from the firm’s Corporate, Health Care, Tax, and Labor & Employment groups, and a conversation about private equity investing in health care with Lex Eley and Stephanie Willis from the firm’s Corporate and Health Care groups. Future topics will cover Medicare Advantage supplemental benefits; proposed elimination of prescription drug rebates; Affordable Care Act litigation; digital health; and telemedicine trends and obstacles.

The firm’s podcast series was recently ranked third out of the top five law firm podcasts by Good2bSocial, a digital marketing agency for lawyers and companies in the legal industry.
