Alice Hall-Partyka is an associate in the firm’s Health Care Group. Her practice focuses on assisting health care payers, providers, and other health care entities on regulatory and corporate matters. Much of her practice involves counseling clients concerning compliance with a broad array of state and federal health care laws and regulations. Her areas of experience include digital health, Medicaid and Medicare program requirements, health reform, state regulation of payers and providers, pharmacy benefit management, and mental health parity. In addition to advising on complex regulatory frameworks, she represents health care entities in negotiating a range of corporate transactions, including payer-provider contracts, management services agreements, data use agreements, pharmacy benefit management outsourcing contracts, and innovative care delivery and risk-sharing arrangements. Further, Alice maintains an active pro bono practice, through which she has represented asylum seekers and has handled appellate matters relating to racial justice and environmental issues.
While in law school, Alice successfully represented a client who was in asylum removal proceedings and served as the student director of the Afghanistan Legal Education Project, an initiative funded by the U.S. Department of State.
