About Dennis
Dennis Hursh earned an LL.M. in Tax from Georgetown University Law Center. That specialized training set the stage for a career at the intersection of health care and finance. He has built a practice around physician agreements and the complexities that come with them.
Early in his career Hursh moved into health law. In 1992 he became managing partner at Physician Agreements Health Law. He took on both client work and firm management, handling contract negotiations, compensation arrangements and regulatory compliance matters. His role required translating technical tax concepts into practical solutions for physician groups and health care entities.
Hursh maintains an active membership in the Pennsylvania State Bar. He has also been a member of the American Health Law Association since 1990, a connection that kept him plugged into changes in health care policy and practice for decades. Those memberships reflect steady engagement in professional circles rather than headline-grabbing office-holding. Colleagues and clients have relied on him for case-specific counsel rather than public legal advocacy.
His work often involves drafting and negotiating employment agreements, professional service contracts and partnership documents. He handles compensation structures that must satisfy both tax rules and state law. The legal work requires attention to detail and familiarity with shifting reimbursement models. Hursh treats those technical details as the core of effective client representation.
Over time he has balanced transactional work with advisory roles. He consults with physicians considering group practice, independent contractor arrangements and hospital affiliations. He reviews policies and procedures to ensure contractual frameworks match operational realities. His school background in tax law remains relevant; many disputes and structuring questions turn on tax consequences.
Hursh operates from Physician Agreements Health Law. He serves clients in Pennsylvania and concentrates on the state’s regulatory and commercial landscape. He stays current on legislative developments and industry practice through professional ties and casework. He continues to handle negotiations and contract drafting for physician practices, hospitals and health care professionals.
He practices in Pennsylvania and focuses on physician agreements and other health law matters in his current practice.
