As former in-house counsel for several large regional health care systems, Tonya Rose provides sensible, strategic and holistic guidance to health care clients on sophisticated regulatory issues, compliance programs, government investigations, transactions and day-to-day operations.

The breadth of Tonya’s practice is one of its biggest strengths. She regularly advises clients on federal and state Stark, Anti-Kickback and False Claims laws; Medicare and Medicaid billing and reimbursement; audits; and both internal and external investigations, typically over alleged fraud or abuse. She is particularly focused on driving innovation in health care — including digital/telehealth and the use of AI, value-based and alternative payment models, payor-provider collaborations, and population health management. As a former privacy officer, Tonya brings deep experience and insights into health information data and privacy issues.

In addition to her regulatory and compliance work, Tonya regularly structures, negotiates and implements a wide range of health care transactions ranging from physician service agreements, clinical trial agreements and other routine contracts to major acquisitions, affiliations and joint ventures.

Clients appreciate Tonya’s responsiveness, efficiency and her collaborative approach to understanding their unique needs. Her solutions balance often complex legal, regulatory and business issues to advance client goals and position them for the future.
