A pharmacist or pharmacy must not provide a computer modem or other similar electronic device to a prescriber, health care facility, or any other third party or provider entity for the purpose of providing an incentive to the practitioner, health care facility, or third party or provider entity that refers patients to a particular pharmacy or department. This does not prohibit a hospital from providing in-house equipment for the use of practitioners and the hospital pharmacy to communicate within the system.
