Stark reality. How Stark I and II will impact physician relationships.
On August 14, 1995, the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) published a long-awaited final rule implementing the Ethics in Patient Referrals Act (Stark I). In conjunction with this final rule, HCFA intends to survey hospitals and physicians to obtain information necessary to evaluate compliance with the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 amendments to the Stark Act (Stark II), most of which took effect on January 1, 1995.
