Rob Rozier concentrates his practice in healthcare law, primarily assisting clients with strategic planning, state regulatory issues and clinical research matters. A significant part of Rob's practice consists of aiding hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, assisted living facilities and other healthcare facilities in complying with state Certificate of Need (CON) laws. Rob helps clients obtain CONs by assisting with the CON application process, defending against opposition and providing representation throughout the CON review process and any subsequent appeals process. Rob also assists clients in opposing efforts of competing healthcare facilities to obtain CONs that would negatively impact existing operations. Having overseen the CON program for the state of Georgia and having implemented many of the rules, processes and procedures that apply to the CON program today, Rob has a unique understanding of the program requirements and helps clients anticipate and address potential hurdles.
Additionally, Rob advises clients regarding clinical research matters, including compliance with federal laws and regulations impacting clinical research programs and negotiation of clinical trial agreements.
