One point from the lecture that stood out to me is how consulting agreements must follow all the elements of a valid contract—offer, acceptance, consideration, capacity, and intent. Yet in the medical device field, consulting agreements with physicians can easily cross ethical lines if the work isn’t legitimate.

With strict oversight now from DOJ and AdvaMed, companies must document real deliverables to avoid anti-kickback violations.

At what point do you think a consulting agreement becomes suspicious enough to risk legal consequences?
