Jena E. Taft
Senior Counsel
Combining an expansive knowledge of the legal and regulatory landscape in which her clients operate with a first-hand appreciation of their practical and business challenges, Jena Taft provides pragmatic, actionable, compliance counsel and other guidance to dental support organizations (DSOs), dental practices, and other healthcare providers and companies.
Jena's understanding of her clients' priorities and concerns, the risks they confront, and how they expect their attorneys to address those risks, is a product of her extensive in-house experience that includes an eight-hospital system, serving as legal counsel to an established medical group, and several DSOs. She has overseen well-established programs’ risk departments, managing comprehensive compliance and corporate insurance programs for a large national DSO with hundreds of locations across scores of states, and also developed and implemented such programs for smaller organizations and start-ups in growth mode.
“The perspectives I gained working in-house - understanding how my organizations actually functioned, their internal and external interactions, and their need for real-world guidance rather than esoteric explanations of the law – helps me efficiently manage their risks and effectively advance their goals.”
