Traducción automática local · Idioma original de la fuente
Resumen
In settlement of alleged violations of federal law prohibiting unfair acts and practices and unfair methods of competition, this consent agreement, accepted subject to final Commission approval, would require, among other things, HEALTHSOUTH, an Alabama-based corporation, to divest Nashville Rehabilitation Hospital and related assets in Nashville, TN. within twelve months to a Commission approved entity. If the divestiture is not completed on time, the Commission would be permitted to appoint a trustee to complete the transaction. In addition, the consent agreement would require HEALTHSOUTH to terminate management contracts to operate rehabilitation units at Medical Center East in Birmingham, AL. and Roper Hospital in Charleston, S.C. Also, the consent agreement would require HEALTHSOUTH, for ten years, to obtain Commission approval before merging, by acquisition, lease, management contract or otherwise, any of its rehabilitation hospital facilities in any of the three areas with any competing facilities in those areas.
