Federal Bill Seeks Nationwide Ban on Corporate Practice of Medicine
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 Oregon's state law has been introduced in Washington DC that would ban the corporate practice of medicine nationwide. The legislation would prevent non-physician entities from owning or controlling medical practices, a restriction currently in place only in varying forms at the state level. The proposal has drawn attention from healthcare providers, investors and law firms assessing its impact on practice ownership and private equity involvement in medicine.
Why now: Lawmakers are pushing to expand state-level restrictions on corporate medicine to the federal level, raising stakes for healthcare investors and providers
