“I want to start a new business.”
This is a great time to get your new practice or healthcare business off the ground! We can prepare everything this year and get you ready for launch in the early new year. For a single-person business, that typically includes establishing your LLC or corporation, preparing your HIPAA policies and procedures, reviewing your current employment contract’s noncompetition or nonsolicitation language, and negotiating your commercial lease.
