Bill overview
This bill, the Stop Anticompetitive Healthcare Act of 2023, aims to increase competition in the healthcare industry by giving the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) the power to investigate and take action against hospital organizations and cooperative hospital service organizations. Currently, these organizations are largely exempt from antitrust laws. The bill expands the FTC’s authority to scrutinize their practices, ensuring they aren't engaging in unfair competition that could harm patients and consumers. This legislation seeks to prevent hospitals and similar groups from using their tax-exempt status to stifle competition.
