  1. The question you have to ask yourself, do you want your doctor changing employers and hospital systems? If your physician is a Community physician and decided to change practices and moves to one that is owned by Ascension or IU Health, are you moving all of your health care to the other facility? This will not fix the rural physician shortage. It will affect those of us who live in urban areas where there are a lot of choices for these physicians.

  2. The usual arguments for noncompete issues involve protecting trade secrets or intellectual property. Physicians on the other hand, have only their talent and ability to offer consumers. There are no “trade secrets” in the practice of medicine, only hospital systems whose real goal is to make money, protect their “turf”, and hire more administrators at high cost – no wonder health care costs are so much higher, especially in Indianapolis.

  3. 90% of non competes are BS, but this one stands out. Anyone remember 2 years ago when the entire healthy care industry was wailing in agony and asking for support for their “hero’s”? So much for the greater good.
    This is an example of something that should be passed before lunch by the supermajority at the Statehouse. The only reason it wouldn’t be is because of the bribe money our “public servants” are collecting from the hospitals
