Certificate Of Need
Various health care facilities and services require a Certificate of Need (CON) under state law. Transactions involving these health care facilities and services present an additional layer of governmental regulation on top of the other state and federal health care laws and regulations. Whether a transaction can be completed may depend entirely on a CON issue. Accordingly, Kotz Sangster's clients have encountered CON issues related to both fixed and mobile advanced diagnostic imaging, ambulatory surgical centers and hospitals. Kotz Sangster’s Health Care Practice Group has meaningful and practical experience addressing CON issues, including the relationship CON laws have with other federal and state laws and the impact CON laws and regulations have on transactions among health care industry participants.
