David M. Ermer
Washington, DC
Mr. Ermer is our managing partner. He joined Gordon & Ermer at its founding
and has been a partner since 1986. During law school, he was a member of the
law review and was admitted to the Order of the Coif, a national legal honor
society. Since entering private practice in 1979, he has developed substantial
expertise in litigating labor, employment discrimination, and employee benefits
matters at both the trial and appellate levels. He also has been responsible for
providing legal counsel to ERISA-governed single-employer health and welfare
plans, to jointly trusteed Taft-Hartley pension and health and welfare plans, to
voluntary employee beneficiary associations, and to several Federal Employees
Health Benefits Plans. Through this work, he has become well versed in current
topics in the employee benefits and government contracts fields. He has
developed extensive expertise in government contract cost allowability and cost
accounting issues and HIPAA administrative simplification issues. He leads
monthly discussion groups for Federal Employees Health Benefits Plan executives
and for lawyers interested in that field.
Mr. Ermer is author of 'Employer Liability in the Managed Care Setting', which
was published in the June 1993 issue of the International Foundation's Employee
Benefits Journal. He has written articles for BNA's Compensation and Benefits
Guide about employment law issues affecting government contractors and the use
of the Internet to research employment and employee benefits issues. He wrote
an article on ERISA that appeared in the July 1998 issue of The Complete
Lawyer, an American Bar Association journal. Mr. Ermer and Robert G.
Iadicicco wrote an article on the Patient Bill of Rights for the American Health
Lawyers Association's HMOs & Health Plans Newsletter. He currently maintains
a
FEHBlog on health care policy issues affecting Federal Employees Health
Benefits Plans.
