I was interviewed for the current Part B Insider article on anti-kickback compliance (p. 3 of the issue linked to here) in light of a recent OIG report on enforcement. Check it out.
As I tell folks over and over again: good business practices in other industries are often illegal in health care.

Regarding your post on the federal anti-kickback statute, it’s a necessary regulation in the health care industry. It ensures fair business practices, prevents coerced reciprocity, and possible extortion, and does not cloud the judgement of the prescriber. Those without a medical background may feel otherwise.
