Overview

Biography

Rex’s health care–focused practice encompasses a wide range of matters, including mergers and acquisitions, not-for-profit formation and governance, applications for tax-exempt status, drafting various commercial agreements, compliance and regulatory affairs, HIPAA policies, and insurance audits and reimbursement disputes.

During Rex's nearly ten years with a large Boston-based health care technology company, he worked with physicians' practices to improve operational efficiency, streamline revenue cycle operations, and adopt value-based payment models. His operational experience in health care IT gives him a valuable perspective in his approach to the legal concerns of health care clients, and his experience working for a large technology firm influences his corporate work.
