Bass, Berry & Sims attorneys Danielle Sloane, Taylor Chenery, John Eason and Travis Lloyd contributed content to the Health Law Handbook, 2026 ed. This 36th edition of the Health Law Handbook brings together 20 authors who have contributed 13 articles addressing advanced issues both in newly developing sectors of health law and topics that have defined the field this past year.
Danielle co-authored the chapter with Alice Heywood titled, “Tips and Tricks in Evaluating and Implementing Value-Based Care Arrangements.” This chapter provides a practical guide for healthcare organizations considering, negotiating, and implementing value-based care (VBC) arrangements. It explains key VBC concepts, reviews recent policy developments, and offers strategic and legal considerations for providers seeking to participate in risk-based payment models.
Taylor, John and Travis authored the chapter, “Healthcare Fraud and Abuse—2025 Update.” This chapter provides a comprehensive overview of significant 2024-2025 developments affecting healthcare fraud and abuse enforcement, focusing on the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS), Stark Law, False Claims Act (FCA), and related regulatory and enforcement trends. The chapter highlights how regulators, courts, and enforcement agencies continue to scrutinize financial relationships, reimbursement practices, and healthcare business arrangements while expanding guidance on emerging healthcare delivery models.
