Role of a health care professional
The Stark Law intends to prevent and detect kickbacks in the delivery of health care. From the readings and independent research, find two specific real life examples of how kickback arrangements would violate the Stark Law and discuss with your colleagues how the kickback arrangements could violate trust between provider organizations and patients. Consider using the terms transparency, patient choice, and informed consent. Read the background articles but this discussion will take research beyond the above articles. Provide citation of authority to support your initial response to conference questions. Peers are expected to demonstrate critical thinking in their questions related to the classmates’ descriptions.
