• Gifts and Discounts: What's Permissible, What's Not. Thursday, May 27, 1:00 pm ET.

Courtesies like gifts or discounts may express appreciation, but can also implicate federal and state laws pertaining to kickbacks and self-referral prohibitions. Join nationally known healthcare attorney Wayne J. Miller, Esq., for this 90-minute seminar.
