More choices, more worker power

Break up Big Healthcare

El-Sayed opposes hospital consolidation that shrinks patient choice and worker power, and supports giving the FTC authority to break up healthcare monopolies.

Do you ever wonder why your hospital keeps changing its name?

WHAT HE HAS SAID

  • Would work to stop the hospital mergers that leave patients with fewer choices, and nurses, doctors, and hospital workers with less say at work.
  • Wants the FTC empowered to retrospectively review healthcare mergers and break up monopolies, and backs the Break Up Big Medicine Act.
  • Would push to expand public healthcare by investing more in federally qualified health centers and public clinics and hospitals.
