Our client, a large
multi-faceted provider of rural healthcare services,
had made a decision to close a long-term care
facility that it operated. The notice of closure
sparked the opposition of a state agency, which
appealed the pending closure on behalf of certain
residents. Rodey advised the provider during
the process leading up to closure and represented
the provider at the administrative hearing where
a favorable result was obtained. The facility
closed on schedule without further incident.

Rodey was asked to represent a
HMO in an administrative appeal involving whether

The appeal required the retaining of medical
experts and extensive preparation on issues related

The representation ended with the appellant withdrawing
her appeal. |
