Over the past year, the demand for health care via telehealth has continued to skyrocket as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the public’s increased comfort with obtaining health care goods and services virtually.
While this increased demand has brought incredible ingenuity in the delivery of care by both brick-and-mortar providers and telehealth companies, it has also ushered in increased government scrutiny. Compliance is becoming increasingly complex as waivers and flexibilities instituted due to the Covid-19 pandemic have made an already cumbersome regulatory environment even harder to navigate.
During this program we will demystify the current status of laws and regulations, untangle the web of legislation before Congress related to the expansion of telehealth services, discuss recent enforcement activity, and look ahead to trends we see on the horizon.
On July 9, 2021, President Biden signed an Executive Order targeting antitrust regulation and enforcement to increase competition in an open economy. The mandate directs more than 20 executive agencies, including the DOJ and FTC to implement rulemaking and policy changes in accordance with the administration’s agenda. Progressives have been installed to head up the FTC and DOJ. There is bipartisan support for legislative change. Now more than ever, competition policy and theory are at a critical tipping point. Federal antitrust enforcers are also laser-focused on the intersection of data privacy practices and growing marketing power of corporations. Join us for a complimentary webinar, as two Crowell & Moring partners, including a former attorney at the FTC Bureau of Consumer Protection and a partner in their Antitrust and Competition practice, discuss key takeaways from antitrust enforcement activity under the Biden administration and what corporations can expect going into 2022.
Topics include:
The Biden Executive Order: What it says
Potential legislative changes by Congress: Impact and Implications
FTC and DOJ’s enforcement authority: Civil and Criminal Changes
Privacy and data security on the FTC agenda
What to expect in 2022 under Biden (merger review, monopolization, cartels, etc.)
