Federal Enforcement Updates Impacting the Life Sciences Industry: DOJ Investigations, Cybersecurity, and Gender-Affirming Care
Event Details
Federal regulators, including the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”), are increasing scrutiny in areas such as healthcare fraud, cybersecurity compliance, and gender-affirming care. New enforcement initiatives and regulatory actions are creating challenges for organizations managing compliance obligations and government investigations. For healthcare and life sciences companies, understanding these enforcement priorities is essential to managing risk and preparing for potential government scrutiny.
