HIPAA and SOC compliance are crucial for digital health companies as they mandate strict safeguards for protected health information (PHI). Digital health firms must implement robust security measures, strict privacy policies, and data management practices to make sure the confidentiality and integrity of patient data. Achieving HIPAA and SOC compliance will help your company avoid legal consequences and fines and establish trust among patients by demonstrating a commitment to maintaining the highest standards of healthcare data privacy and security. Our highly knowledgeable professionals can work with you to ensure your business is HIPAA and SOC compliant.

The MSO-PC or Friendly PC model, which has been gaining popularity, is a legal structure often utilized by digital health companies to streamline operations and facilitate collaborations. This structure enables healthcare providers, such as physicians and other healthcare professionals, to partner with management services organizations to efficiently manage administrative and business aspects while maintaining control over clinical decision-making. This model has played a major role in facilitating the scaling of many virtual health businesses while adhering to the regulations set forth by the Corporate Practice of Medicine Laws (CPOM). However, there are several legal and tax considerations to be aware of to ensure that the business complies with the maze of rules between Federal and State laws. At Withum, our experts can help you work through these rules and regulations and ensure your business is in compliance with the law.

The management fee structure in digital health companies can have significant accounting and tax implications. Properly accounting for these fees is crucial to ensure accurate financial reporting. Depending on the structure and nature of the fees, they may be treated as operating expenses, affecting the company’s profitability and tax liability. Additionally, tax regulations may require careful consideration of whether these fees are deductible, potentially impacting the company’s overall tax strategy and financial performance. Our experts can help you navigate these complexities effectively.
