Healthcare Attorney and Physician Advocate Jeffrey Grass
Dallas Texas Attorney Jeffrey C. Grass's clients are mostly physicians, nurses, and other medical personnel disciplined or terminated for reasons not related to improving the quality, safety, or costs of patient care. His typical client faces contrived charges brought in retaliation for being a competitor, viewed as a competitor, or thought to be another kind of a threat or problem for a supervisor, manager or others in control. Physicians and medical staff often are singled out for termination because they deliver, or facilitate the delivery of high quality and safe, yet cost-effective medical services with good patient outcomes. Their "lean" diagnostic and treatment protocols, however, are on average far cheaper for the patient and healthcare insurers including Medicare and Medicaid. In the short term, lean physicians like Dr. Freilich tend to bring in far less money for the hospitals, physicians' groups and clinics where they practice. They make minimal use of expensive diagnostic equipment and facilities, yet achieve good outcomes. Healthcare professionals who seek out Attorney Grass typically have made a report, critique, observation, speech or been proactive in raising the quality and lowering the excessive costs of patient care, speech or actions that put them in disfavor with the managers or ruling forces of the healthcare entity where they serve as credentialed physicians or employed staff.
