Brian is a Litigation and Healthcare partner based in Washington, D.C. He previously served as the Acting General Counsel and Principal Deputy General Counsel of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”), in Washington, D.C. Brian’s overarching goal at AGG is to deliver exceptional value to healthcare providers through more personalized service and creative fee structures.
Brian works to secure full reimbursement for providers. When administrative agencies make a rule or determination that reduces government reimbursement, Brian challenges the action on behalf of providers or their professional association. When major commercial payers deny or underpay claims, he brings a civil action or arbitration for the provider to recover what is owed.
