Occurrences

Ryan’s legislation bars insurers – including UnitedHealth Group – from buying medical practices through subsidiaries like Optum, and requires existing healthcare conglomerates to separate their insurance and healthcare provider businesses.

Ryan is advancing the Patients Over Profits Act to prohibit insurers from owning medical practices and to force existing conglomerates to split insurance and provider operations.
