Trauma Associates of North Broward, Inc., et al.; Proposed Consent Agreement With Analysis To Aid Public Comment

Краткое содержание

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, Dr. Johnson, the president of a Florida corporation, to dissolve Trauma Associates within 180 days after the order becomes final, and would prohibit the ten surgeons from entering into, organizing, or implementing any agreement to: refuse to provide surgical services in connection with any effort to fix the level of fees for such services; prevent the delivery of surgical services; or deal on collectively determined terms with anyone who pays for health services.
