Every company operating in the healthcare sector runs into a range of ordinary legal issues that often call for multidisciplinary input — with higher management costs and a greater dispersion of energies, which inevitably affect how quickly action can be taken. This is the scenario the Legal Desk service offered by netforLegaL is designed for. It is a multidisciplinary legal assistance and advisory service whose availability and, above all, speed the Client can always count on. The service meets the need to outsource the handling of legal issues in less complex business contexts and can also be a valuable support to the in-house legal department in more structured organisations.
The involvement of a pool of senior professionals — organised by area of specialisation — allows the Client to capitalise on the advisory experience gained, ensuring constant regulatory updates in its sector. The multidisciplinary approach also delivers attractive economies of scale.
Our areas of work include:
- Legal and contractual assistance to companies developing digital health solutions;
- Opinions on the application of sector rules (FSE, telemedicine, e-health);
- Impact assessments on e-health and m-health solutions and on the processing of health data;
- Assistance with Patient Relationship Management, online booking and reporting solutions;
- Management of health data on mobile and wearable devices;
- Outsourced IT and cloud projects in the healthcare sector;
- Training for healthcare and administrative staff.
For each Client the service involves a “contact lawyer”, who coordinates the work and has an ongoing relationship with the company. The presence of this figure brings:
- A stronger relationship of trust with the Client;
- The progressive personalisation of the service, as knowledge of the company context steadily grows;
- The guarantee of a constant legal presence, which also plays a proactive role towards the Client.
As for how the service is offered, the methodology is that of a typical help desk: maximum freedom and flexibility for the Client to set upfront an annual budget for the initiative, to make the most of its economies of scale.
The expected result is to turn what has perhaps been perceived until now as the cost of regulatory compliance into an insurance policy — or an investment — in the peace of mind of doing things properly.
