A resolution to restore patient protection laws; urging certain federal agencies to repeal waivers of antitrust, anti-free-splitting, and anti-self-referral laws and urging an amendment to the 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

SF 1105 is a Minnesota Senate resolution (not a law) urging federal action to restore healthcare regulations. It asks the Federal Trade Commission to repeal antitrust law waivers and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to repeal waivers of anti-fee-splitting and anti-self-referral rules. The resolution also urges Congress to amend federal law to let clinics and hospitals choose whether to accept payment tied to the volume of patient referrals. This would prevent healthcare providers from being pressured to ration care or share profits through referral networks. The bill directly addresses federal agencies and Congress, not Minnesota entities.
