Ross Burris centers his practice on health care reimbursement disputes, guiding providers through contested payment determinations, overpayment demands and the audits that drive them. He handles the full lifecycle of reimbursement litigation and appeals, including commercial payor disputes, Medicare and Medicaid audits and related False Claims Act investigations. Much of Ross’s work involves defending providers in government and commercial audits that trigger parallel administrative, enrollment and Medicaid appeals, where he builds practical, strategic paths to recover or protect reimbursement. He is known for helping clients manage high-pressure audit findings and reimbursement challenges while keeping their operations steady.
