Helen R. Trilling

Widely recognized as a problem solver, Helen Trilling combines deep industry knowledge with an understanding of government enforcement interests to help health care clients design competitive business strategies. Working at the forefront of clinical and health care reform developments, Helen helps manufacturers and providers assess market opportunities and structure attractive customer offerings while managing compliance risk.

Long before most health care companies had "fraud and abuse" concerns on their radar, Helen was helping clients develop compliance programs, and counseling them on anti-kickback, self-referral and false claims risks. As innovation spurs development of new products and services, whether in personalized medicine, companion diagnostics and lab-developed tests, biologics and specialty pharmacies, shared risk plans, health care IT, mobile diagnostic and treatment, or other new technologies, Helen's clients rely on her to help identify and evaluate risk in proposed offerings, design mitigation strategies or alternatives, and advocate for regulatory or legislative change where needed.

Helen's vast client base and depth of experience allow her to help clients benchmark against industry norms and evolving expectations of regulators and enforcement officials. Helen also regularly counsels clients on Medicare/Medicaid coverage, reimbursement, and billing, and has experience dealing with a wide variety of other federal and state regulatory issues in health care.

Helen's legal career includes stints at the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and in the private sector. Perennially highly ranked by peers and clients, health care companies seek Helen out for her broad knowledge of the health care industry and regulatory environment, useful insight, and practical advice.
