RELATING TO HEALTH CARE MARKET OVERSIGHT.

Summary

The bill requires health‑care entities to give the State Health Planning and Development Agency at least 180 days notice before completing a material merger, acquisition, or similar transaction. The agency must conduct a public‑interest review, and any vertical consolidation that meets specified market‑share and pricing thresholds must be approved by a concurrent resolution of the legislature. The goal is to curb consolidation that could raise costs, limit access, or shift financial burdens to the state.
