Ah, nothing beats a broadly written bill to ensure proper legislative intent…whatever that may be. From Nevada Appeal:
Nevada Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto, who had a limited role last year in a review of the biggest health insurance company merger in state history, wants new powers to ensure such deals don’t lead to abuses of market power.
Cortez Masto is pushing AB95, which would expand the authority of her office to review future mergers. The measure, already facing opposition from some business interests, follows the 2008 merger between Sierra Health Services and insurance giant UnitedHealth Group.
