OPMC


Office of Professional Medical Conduct

We represent physicians in investigations brought by the Office of Professional Medical Conduct (“OPMC”) of the New York State Department of Health. A disciplinary sanction by the OPMC after an investigation and trial can have serious consequences for the physician, including loss of license, probation, censure, or letter of reprimand. We also represent physicians facing contract termination proceedings before HMOs, and other health care professionals in proceedings before the Department of Education. 

The OPMC-related issues we are currently dealing with in the office are diverse, comprehensive and include:

  • Healthcare provider with a substance abuse issue.
  • Healthcare provider with a psychiatric issue.
  • Two physicians attempting to have their licenses restored.
  • Issues regarding licensure of non-medical personnel in a physician’s office.
  • Assisting a physician to obtain reasonably priced liability coverage.
  • Responsibilities of one physician to report another physician for substance abuse while treating patients to the Department of Health.
  • Healthcare provider accused of charting errors in a hospital record.
  • If you would like any additional information, please contact an attorney who is familiar with this type of situation and who may address any frequently-asked questions.
