FAQs Explaining Agreement/Marketing Compliance Strategies
Understanding Your US Private Direct Medicine Patient Agreement
As US healthcare professionals explore innovative private direct practice models, there is a natural tendency for any of the following to occur: a) forms/template sharing; b) reten-tion of healthcare (or non-healthcare) attorneys or consultants somewhat unfamiliar with Medicare-compliant patient agreement strategies; and c) the intrusion of what may look like common sense — but US healthcare regulations are not always rational nor reasonable and they certainly impose requirements that vary from other industries.
The purpose of this article is to answer some basic frequently asked questions (FAQs) about US private direct patient agreements. Many of these subjects are covered more in-depth in other webinars/white papers, so this is intended to provide more succinct answers to very typical (and reasonable) questions.
