The Stark Law prohibits self-dealing. The Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS) prohibits paying referral fees or inducements for incoming business. For example, if a Doctor pays an illegal runner $50 per each patient referred to his practice that would violate the Anti-Kickback Statute. If the Doctor then went on to refer all the patients to a pharmacy in the building which he or she owns a piece of it is a violation of the Stark Law.
