The Stark Law specifically permits a hospital to impose this referral restriction, subject to the following exceptions and limitations: we require our employed physicians to refer within the hospital system unless (i) the patient expresses a preference for a different provider, practitioner, or supplier; (ii) the patient insurer determines the provider, practitioner, or supplier; or (iii) the physician believes that the referral is not in the patient best medical interests. We believe that this type of contractual restriction is reasonably necessary to effectuate the legitimate business purposes of the arrangement with this practitioner.
