#4: Our Take April–Part 1
Episode Description
John shares our take on the first half of April highlighting Walmart’s talks to acquire Humana, and California's suit against Sutter Health.
-
Reuters and The Wall Street Journal independently reported that
Walmart is considering an acquisition of health insurer Humana.
Citing people familiar with the matter, Reuters said the companies
are in early talks about developing closer ties, with one possibility
being an acquisition. -
The state of California has filed an antitrust suit against Sutter
Health, alleging anticompetitive behavior. Among other complaints,
the suit alleges that the Sacramento-based health system imposes gag
clauses on prices and in some cases charges “punitively high” amounts
for out-of-network services.
Of Note: Our Take Narrations will be twice monthly after these inaugural episodes.
