Newly Opened Austin Law Firm Focused On Doctors
Hill Law PLLC offers outsourced General Counsel services at a flat monthly rate
AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 21, 2015 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Hill Law PLLC, open for business this month, focuses on outsourced general counsel work for healthcare groups, including help with audits, peer review, contracts, and daily legal issues that come up in a practice.
Protecting a Doctor's Calling
"I love representing doctors," said Amanda Hill, who founded the firm. "They work so hard listening, caring for people, and are highly trained to treat disease. But one slip-up on an audit, security breach, or a business deal, and they can lose everything. I'm here to make sure that doesn't happen."
Healthcare is Highly Regulated
According to Hill, today's world of medicine is highly regulated, highly audited, and a highly risky thing to tackle without help. "I've found that physician practices use a variety of different attorneys depending on the issue at hand," said Hill. "But there's not a lot of coordination, and it's very reactive." So Hill created a different type of business model. Instead of just hourly billing, Hill Law offers a flat-rate service for physician practices as well as federally qualified heath centers (FQHCs).
Make Your Lawyer Part of the Management Team
"The traditional law firm encourages attorneys to bill, bill, bill, and it creates an environment where the attorney isn't part of the team," Hill said. She wanted to change that dynamic, making herself part of the group, where providers could call about a variety of issues and have a clear expectation of cost from month to month. And she's fast, as client Kevin Spencer, MD, of Premier Family Physicians, stated. "I've not met many attorneys who return your call immediately, address a legal issue over a weekend, and are as responsive as Amanda is."
"There are so many issues a physician practice faces on a daily basis," Hill said. "From firing a key staff member to billing and coding concerns, there's always something that pops up where having a health lawyer on their side is a real plus." Ultimately, Hill just wants to help doctors out.
"It brings me great joy to make them feel safer, more protected, and have someone they can always reach out to and call. I'm allowing them to do what they do best, which is to treat patients."
