Health Care
National spending on health care exceeds $4.5 trillion per year—almost 18% of GDP—and more than 42% of it was paid by government payors. This has led to a complex commercial, regulatory, and enforcement environment that is in a constant state of flux. Alston & Bird guides you to your goals with a trusted and responsive legal and policy team that can cover every area of your health care business.
