excerpt:

"Hospital executives and healthcare attorneys criticized the law’s rigid inability to adapt to the changing healthcare environment during a hearing Tuesday before the Senate Committee on Finance. Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) called the law “the embodiment of good intentions muddled with complex execution.”

Originally intended to prevent financial relationships between providers from influencing patient care, the Stark Law prohibits doctors from referring patients to other providers with whom they have a financial relationship."

My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.
