(2) before the patient is discharged or furloughed from the facility, the person pays the referring person or accepts payment from the facility for outpatient services to be provided by the referring person after the patient is discharged or furloughed from the facility; and
(3) the referring person does not provide the outpatient services for which payment was made and does not return to the facility the payment received for those services.
