Quiver AI Summary
U.S. Representative Val Hoyle, alongside Senators Jeff Merkley and Elizabeth Warren, and Representatives Pat Ryan and Pramila Jayapal, have introduced the Patients Over Profits Act. This legislation aims to prevent large health insurance corporations from acquiring independent clinics, claiming such consolidations jeopardize patient access to care.
Rep. Hoyle stated that the bill seeks to ensure that care remains the priority, arguing that Wall Street interests have historically overshadowed patient needs. The legislation has gained support from various healthcare advocacy organizations, who contend that healthcare should focus on patient care rather than corporate profit.
Critics highlight testimony from healthcare professionals and communities affected by the consolidations, asserting that these actions lead to higher costs and a decline in service quality. The Patients Over Profits Act is seen as a significant step toward dismantling the influence of large healthcare conglomerates in the sector.
