Dublin, March 02, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Healthcare Practice Area and Attorney Industry Rate Report 2017" report to their offering.

The "Healthcare Practice and Attorney Industry Rate Report 2017" examines the hourly rates of Attorneys (Partners, Counsel, Senior Associates and Associates) at the Law Firms most active in the Healthcare sector. Rates are analyzed by Individual Firm, Firm Revenue Size Group (Top 10, 50, 100, 101-200) and Firms outside of those traditional rankings - Non-US Firms such as Magic Circle Firms, large Regionals, small and middle-market firms and boutiques.

The Report covers the Legal Spend of hospitals, doctors' groups, suppliers and pharma companies. Also, the Report slices the data by City and Industry (all major ones) to highlight geographical and industry-specific pricing differences.

How to provide and pay for Healthcare is the #1 issue / problem / opportunity in most major countries. More and more of a country's financial resources will be dedicated and required to pay the health care costs of a quickly aging population. In the United States, the Affordable Care Act has set in motion a dizzying array of new regulations and mandates.

Healthcare Executives, in general, are ecstatic over the new law since it requires that 1) 22 Million current non-insureds be required to buy insurance through a group or through the federal and / or state exchanges and 2) premiums be increased to cover additional services that apply to all within the policy geographical area including but not limited to maternity, abortion and obesity services. In addition to the fairly new Healthcare practice area, to serve this growing industry, Law Firms will need all major practice areas including Litigation, Regulatory, Corporate, Bankruptcy (mainly for distressed hospitals), Antitrust (mainly for hospital consolidation), IP, Product Liability, Pharma and Labor & Employment.

Key Topics Covered:

Section 1: Average Rates by Company and Firm

Section 2: Rates & Projections for the Top 200

Section 3: Rates & Projections for Associates by Class Year AMLAW 10

Section 4: Rates & Projections by Practice Area for Top 200

Section 5: Rates & Projections by Cities for Top 200

Section 6: Individual Firms Rates & Projections
