Lashly & Baer, P.C. has represented health care providers for more than 40 years. We are counsel to major health care systems in St. Louis, several independent hospitals, long-term care facilities, the area’s largest air and ground ambulance services, and nursing homes. Plus, we represent more than 50 hospitals and nursing homes across the States of Missouri and Illinois. These clients come to us through both insurance carriers and self-insurance programs. Issues involve professional and general liability matters such as design and use of medical equipment, denial of medical staff privileges as well as intentional tort actions such as false imprisonment and assault. We represent over 30 hospitals throughout Missouri in a claim against certain tobacco manufacturers and others involved in the tobacco industry. This lawsuit seeks to recover our clients unreimbursed costs incurred in treating indigent and nonpaying patients suffering from tobacco related diseases. We regularly litigate reimbursement matters on behalf of providers and against Medicare, Medicaid and managed care entities. One such action netted an additional $5.9 million for our client.
