Office for People with Developmental Disabilities (Res Hab, Day Hab, IRAs)
Office of Mental Health (outpatient clinics)

Matt’s routinely advises his clients on how they can comply with each agency’s statutory and regulatory requirements. This can present challenges to many because the statutes and regulations are not always models of clarity. Matt understands the rules and how they impact his clients’ businesses. He helps his clients navigate the statutes, regulations and agency guidance to find creative, yet practical solutions to meet their needs while also complying with the law.
Matt also regularly counsels his clients on issues relating to corporate formation and by-laws, board governance and responsibilities, executive compensation, tax-exempt recognition, charitable donations and fundraising, stock and asset acquisitions and vendor and professional services contracts.
Matt has written and presented on the effects and consequences of Medicaid and Medicare exclusions; provider self-disclosure obligations; HIPAA/HITECH compliance; and the New York Nonprofit Revitalization Act of 2013.
