Summary

This bill makes it illegal for any person to own both a health insurance issuer and certain health care providers under Medicare (or management services organizations that contract with those providers). It requires divestment of one or the other, allows government officials to sue violators, and amends Medicare Advantage and Part D rules to enforce this prohibition.
