Before drafting an operating agreement, membersof an LLC should consider the purpose, membership structure, and managementstructure of the LLC. The purposes of an LLC may be broad for flexibility ornarrow for liability or conflict control concerns. The membership structureshould identify a single or multi-member structure and/or identify differentclasses of membership interests (for example: economic, voting rights, etc.).The management structure default for LLC’s is member-managed, unless otherwisespecified. Some members may prefer manager-managed or board-managed structures,but can specify that distinction in the operating agreement.

    EDUCATION: Tennessee Passes Laws that Impact Gender Affirming Care

    Web: www.JonesHealthLaw.com Phone: (305)877-5054 Instagram: @JonesHealthLaw Facebook: @JonesHealthLaw YouTube: @JonesHealthLaw Soon after its enactment, the Tennessee law was challenged in federal court. Opponents argue that the law violates the U.S. Constitution’s guarantees of due process and equal protection, citing that similar treatments are allowed fornon-gender-related reasons. Although the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the law’s constitutionality, the case – United States v. Skrmetti – was accepted by the United States Supreme Court for furtherreview on the issue of equal protection. The Court heard arguments on December 4, 2024, and a decision is expected by summer 2025. The case has attracted national attention, with public statements from political figures highlighting its divisive nature. President Trump voiced support for the law in early 2025, a position contrary to that of former President Biden, who opposed such state-level bans.

    EDUCATION: What is the No Suprises Act?

    Web: www.JonesHealthLaw.com Phone: (305)877-5054 Instagram: @JonesHealthLaw Facebook: @JonesHealthLaw YouTube: @JonesHealthLaw The No Surprises Act is a federal law in the United Statesthat went into effect on January 1, 2022. Enacted as part of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, the NSA is designed to protect patients from unexpected medical bills occurring inemergency situations or when they receive care from out-of-network providers at the facilities of in-network providers. This type of billing is commonly referred to as “surprise billing.” The Act prohibits out-of-network providersfrom directly billing patients for certain services and instead requires them to seek payment from the patient’s health plan. If a patient is uninsured or opts for self-pay for a service, the NSA’s protections often provide the opportunity to get a good faith estimate of the cost of care up front.
