Kathleen M. Brown

Kathleen (Kat) Brown advises clients on a broad spectrum of regulatory and compliance matters in the highly regulated health care sector.

She assists health care providers, organizations, and stakeholders in navigating complex regulatory frameworks, including federal and state anti-referral laws, HIPAA compliance, and fee splitting and corporate practice of medicine (CPOM) rules. Kat also counsels clients on licensure and scope of practice issues, telehealth and remote patient monitoring, and regulatory concerns related to pharmaceuticals and medical devices, including 340B Program compliance. In addition to her regulatory work, Kat frequently performs health care diligence in large transactions, including mergers and acquisitions, helping clients address compliance and risk management issues throughout the process.

Kat also advises nonprofit and charitable organizations at every stage of their lifecycle, from formation and tax exemption to day-to-day operations, governance, and dissolution. She assists organizations and their boards in implementing strong internal controls and compliance policies to meet legal and fiduciary obligations.

Before joining the firm, Kat gained extensive experience in private practice, New York State government, government relations, and health care consulting. This diverse background provides her with a deep understanding of the regulatory landscape and empowers her to advocate effectively for clients across both public and private sectors.
