MARK W. SCHILLING


Woodlands Attorney| A. SCOTT KIDD
Mark Schilling has 26 years’ experience in healthcare and insurance law and is licensed in Texas and Oklahoma. Mr. Schilling received undergraduate degrees in business and political science from Southern Methodist University, Dallas, in 1990 and his law degree from University of Tulsa College of Law in 1993. He was a partner in the law firm Riggs, Abney, Neal, Turpen, Orbison & Lewis where he practiced insurance litigation, labor and employment, healthcare and medical liability. In 2004 he left the practice of law to lead an innovative healthcare specialty insurance company and focus on healthcare consulting on patient safety, provider quality and healthcare cost issues. Mr. Schilling served for 5 years on the Partner’s Advisory Committee for The Leapfrog Group in Washington, D.C. Leapfrog is made up of large national employers focused on patient safety and provider quality for their employee benefit plans.

For the past three years, Mr. Schilling has been engaged by Walmart and its health data management company, HDMS, to work on data analytics for patient safety and provider quality issues. This project was designed to provide new data to support healthcare quality initiatives, such as centers of excellence, direct contracting and other benefit policies to improve quality and reduce health plan costs.

Mr. Schilling joined GKBK as of counsel where he will continue to do healthcare consulting and healthcare law as well as first and third-party insurance litigation.  
Mr. Schilling is a “native” of The Woodlands, TX having moved here with his family in 1982 when it was still a small township with a population under 18,000 people. He and his wife, Gretchen, moved back with their two sons in 2008. When he is not working, Mr. Schilling spends his spare time outdoors. He enjoys hiking, backpacking, kayaking, camping and fishing. Basically, any excuse to spend time in the wilderness.
