A resolution urging federal agencies to repeal waivers of antitrust, anti-fee-splitting, and anti-self-referral laws.

This resolution urges the President of the United States to direct the Federal Trade Commission to repeal waivers of antitrust laws, and urges the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to repeal waivers of anti-fee-splitting and anti-self-referral laws. It also urges Congress to amend federal law to require that clinics and hospitals have freedom to contract or not contract for payment contingent on the volume of orders for care. The resolution argues that these waivers and practices endanger the integrity of America's health care system by allowing collusion and profiteering.
