Missouri HB2184 bans noncompete clauses in physician employment contracts.

Missouri HB2184 amends Chapter 191 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri by adding a new section prohibiting noncompete clauses in physician employment contracts. This change aims to enhance the mobility of physicians within the state, potentially improving healthcare access and competition among medical providers. The new section, 191.265, explicitly states that such clauses are void and unenforceable, affecting all physicians employed under contracts within Missouri.
