AHLA Publishes the Newest Edition of the Essential Monograph on Stark Law

  • January, 15, 2019

—Published by the American Health Lawyers Association (AHLA), the sixth edition of The Stark Law: Comprehensive Analysis + Practical Guide includes more than a summary of the law, it offers in-depth critical analysis of this risky, complex area, as well as a wealth of practice pointers and advice for advising clients. Written by leading experts in the interpretation and application of Stark Law, the latest edition covers up to date information on topics like: split/shared evaluation and management services, timeshare agreements, valuing goodwill in physician practice acquisitions, revisiting fair market value over the course of a term, updates to the self-referral disclosure protocol, and many more.

“Given the complexity of the Stark Law, and the scope of change generated by recent regulatory and case law developments,” author Charles B. Oppenheim comments, “my partners, Ben Durie and Amy Joseph and I drew on our collective experience and expertise to completely overhaul and update the Stark Law monograph to provide readers with up to the minute guidance and a host of practical compliance tips.”

The Stark Law: Comprehensive Analysis + Practical Guide is available for purchase through AHLA’s store on the LexisNexis website for both members of AHLA and the broader health law professionals community.
