Corporation; Prohibited Trade

Practices, and Affirmative Corrective

Actions

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission.

ACTION: Consent order.

SUMMARY: In settlement of alleged

violations of federal law prohibiting

unfair acts and practices and unfair

methods of competition, this consent

order permits, among other things,

Columbia/HCA and Healthtrust, Inc. to

merge, provided that Columbia/HCA

divests seven hospitals within twelve

months (nine months for the divestiture

of three hospitals in the Salt Lake City

area), and requires the respondent to

terminate its participation in a joint

venture with the Orlando Regional

Health System. In a modification of the

consent agreement, this consent order

replaces a prior-approval requirement

with a prior-notice provision that

requires the respondent, for ten years, to

notify the Commission before acquiring

another acute care hospital in any of the

six market areas at issue, and before

transferring an acute care hospital in

any of the areas to another entity that

already operates one in that area.
