Axinn partner Rick Dagen moderated AHLA's Speaking of Health Law podcast in an episode entitled, "The FTC’s Proposed Rule on Non-Competes: What it Means for the Health Care Industry."

Rick spoke with Steve Vieux, Senior Counsel at Bartko Zankel Bunzel & Miller and former FTC attorney and Ann Bittinger, physician employment agreement attorney at Bittinger Law Firm, about what health lawyers need to know about the proposed rule and its potential impact on their clients. They also discussed the elements of a non-compete section of a physician employment agreement; the content of the proposed rule; recent DOJ and FTC enforcement; state law preemption issues; enforcement on nonprofit health systems; the AHA’s comment; and what health lawyers should do to prepare for the possible implementation of the proposed rule.
