Federal Bill Would Ban Corporate Practice of Medicine Nationwide
Original: From Oregon to Washington DC: Federal Bill Modeled on State Law Seeks Nationwide Ban on Corporate Practice of Medicine
A federal bill modeled on an Oregon state law has been introduced in Washington DC seeking a nationwide ban on the corporate practice of medicine. The legislation would restrict corporations from employing physicians or interfering with clinical decisions, targeting the growth of private-equity-backed and corporate-owned medical practices. Commentators, including law firms advising healthcare clients, are flagging the bill's potential to reshape ownership structures across the US healthcare industry if it advances.
Why now: The bill could force major restructuring of corporate-owned and private-equity-backed medical practices nationwide.
