RopesTalk

In this second installment of Ropes & Gray’s three-part podcast series exploring recent regulatory, compliance, and enforcement developments in the fraud, waste, and abuse space and the potential implications for health care and life science companies in 2024, health care partners Devin Cohen and Michael Lampert are joined by litigation & enforcement partner Andrew O’Connor for a conversation on remuneration offered and paid by labs. Topics of discussion include an exploration of the permissibility of specimen processing arrangements, and an examination of overlay between the Office of the Inspector General (“OIG”) advisory opinions and Department of Justice (“DOJ”) enforcement actions.
