Has anyone heard if there have been any recent change to the Stark
laws? (The laws that deal with physicians referring to entities in which
they have a financial stake). I spoke with a DME rep. who heard this
rumor, but we don't know if there's anything to it.

We have a local physician group that has created their own separate DME
corporation and they're billing for cam walkers, post op KOs and
corsets. Not that I plan to raise the issue with them, but the
applicability of the law may impact the duration of their strategy.
