Legal Structure and Compliance
Business Ownership with GuardianMD
Our network of nationwide healthcare practices allows for non-physician-owned businesses to operate legally and compliantly. We have designed an MSO practice model that meets CPOM requirements and allows you to fully own your own business.
HIPAA Standards
All medical businesses need to follow regulations regarding how they start their business to make sure they meet HIPAA standards. These rules can be set by the state or the federal government, depending on the situation. Businesses need to know about these rules right from the start. This helps them avoid accidentally doing anything wrong or illegal. If there are ever legal questions or concerns, it’s a good idea for doctors and other medical staff to talk to a healthcare attorney for advice on what to do.
MSO/MSA
Guardian has structured PLLCs in every state that are physician-owned and meet all compliance and regulatory requirements. Our clinics fully own their own business (the Managed Service Organization or MSO) and sign a Managed Services Agreement (MSA) with our state-specific PLLC.
