Texas Peer Review Defense Lawyers

Hospital peer reviews can doubly affect the licensing privileges of a medical professional. First, a hospital peer review could result in disciplinary action against a doctor at his or her place of work. Secondly, when a hospital conducts an investigative review of a physician on its staff, the committee must report any negative findings to the Texas Medical Board. A negative review could prompt the licensing board to open its own investigation, which could have consequences that affect the physician’s licensure.

Defending Against a Peer Review

Each hospital has a set of by-laws that detail the standards and procedures to be followed at that hospital. In addition, the by-laws list any grounds for discipline that could lead to a physician’s practicing privileges being suspended or revoked. In addition to these procedural rules, there may be many complex laws involved in a peer review case that require the knowledge and experience of a medical license attorney.

Our Texas peer review defense lawyers understand the complicated nature of hospital peer reviews and we are prepared to represent your case from start to finish. We have experience assisting hundreds of physicians with peer review cases that involve a combination of health law, administrative law, criminal law, and /or hospital by-laws.
