Physicians and pharmacists
A board file starts with records
For a physician, a board file often begins with a patient complaint, a malpractice payment report or a prescribing review. For a pharmacist it can begin with an inspection, a dispensing audit or a complaint from a prescriber. Whichever it is, the board will ask for records.
Ulysses Winslow earlier represented a state licensing agency at its hearings, and he knows what a reviewer looks for in a clinician's response and what makes a file harder to close.

What the board may ask for
Charts and orders
We assemble and read them first, then decide what to send and how to explain it.
Prescribing and dispensing data
State monitoring reports, audit counts and inspection findings, checked against your own records.
An interview with an investigator
We prepare you in two sessions and attend by video, so you aren't answering alone.
An evaluation or a monitoring agreement
We explain what is voluntary and what isn't, and what each choice puts on your record.
Questions from clinicians
Short answers; your first call covers yours.
Will a settlement be public?
Often, in some form, and it may be reported to national databases. We tell you what each option would show and who sees it before you agree to anything.
Should I tell my hospital or my insurer?
Some contracts and policies require notice and some boards expect it. Bring the contracts to the first call and we'll read them with you.
Can you help with a pharmacy inspection finding?
Yes. We respond to the written findings, and to any board follow-up that comes from them.
Facing a medical or pharmacy board?
Send us the letter before you answer it. You'll get a written read and a fixed quote for the next stage.
A call doesn't make us your lawyers; a signed engagement letter does. The fees page lists what each stage costs.
