Miles & Stockbridge is pleased to announce that Robert Wells has joined the law firm as a principal in the health care practice within its Corporate & Securities Practice Group.

Wells focuses on health care regulatory and corporate matters, drawing on nearly 20 years of experience advising health care companies on a broad array of complex legal and operational matters. He has developed and implemented corporate compliance programs, advised on the challenging regulatory issues governing pharmaceutical and medical device companies, and assisted with the development and growth of innovative technology and health care data analytics partnerships, among many other matters.

Prior to joining Miles & Stockbridge, Wells was the chief legal officer of Integra Connect, a comprehensive health care practice management and technology company. He also previously served as general counsel of Flatiron Health and in senior legal roles at Fortune 20 companies Amerisource Bergen Corporation and Cardinal Health.

His deep experience in regulatory compliance encompasses both federal and state issues, including fraud and abuse laws; corporate governance; reimbursement issues; the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and state and international privacy laws; the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; and health care licensure, certification and accreditation.

Wells will work closely with others in health care practice at Miles & Stockbridge, including Peter P. Parvis, a principal in the Towson office, and the health care lawyers who joined the firm from Venable in 2017: principals Robert Zinkham and Lisa C. Keenan and counsel Molly E.G. Ferraioli.
