Extensive Health Care Industry Knowledge & Efficient, Affordable ADR

Health Care Mediation, Arbitration and ADR Services

JAMS neutrals understand the nuances and complexities of the health care industry. JAMS is the world’s largest private alternative dispute resolution (ADR) provider. We excel at resolving disputes involving a variety of constituencies, including matters regarding payor/provider, mergers and acquisitions, hospital employment, privacy and data breach, intellectual property, product liability and others. 

Health Care Mediators and Arbitrators

The JAMS Health Care Practice Group includes retired federal, state and appellate judges and former litigators who have established credibility in health care law and the health care industry. JAMS neutrals resolve cases quickly, providing significant savings of time and expense and often preserving valuable business relationships. JAMS offers skilled, efficient case management, custom rules and affordable options for health care matters of every size and type.

JAMS neutrals collaborate with all parties to design flexible, individualized ADR approaches. They take an active role in pre-hearing preparation and case administration. They serve as health care mediators and health care arbitrators, perform medical peer reviews and frequently act as hearing officers in hospital disputes. In cases that are legally and factually complex, courts often appoint JAMS neutrals as special masters or referees to assist with eDiscovery and other issues involving electronic health records and to design efficient settlement formats in multiparty disputes.

With locations in major cities located throughout the United States and worldwide, JAMS Resolution Centers provide a neutral, professional, and comfortable environment to resolve the most challenging and complex disputes.
