The False-Claim Act focuses on false claims for payment, the Anti-Kickback Statute targets improper referrals for remuneration, the Physician-Self Referral Law (Stark Law) prohibits self-referrals for designated health services, and Exclusion Authorities involve barring individuals/entities from federal programs rather than addressing false application statements directly.
