Bill overview
The Healthy Competition for Better Care Act aims to increase competition in the healthcare market by prohibiting anticompetitive terms in contracts between health insurance plans and healthcare providers. Specifically, it restricts agreements that limit a health plan's ability to direct patients to different providers or offer incentives for using specific providers, require additional agreements with affiliated entities, or dictate payment rates. The bill also includes provisions for the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) and the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) to achieve similar goals, with regulations to be developed within a year of enactment.
