Connecticut officials gathered at the state Capitol Thursday to announce a proposal backed by Gov. Ned Lamont enhancing state oversight of major mergers, acquisitions and asset transfers in the health care sector. The proposal aims to “modernize” state regulation of health care deals. It would broaden the scope of transactions that require Attorney General review, establish a review process for both the Office of Health Strategy and the Attorney General’s Office and allow the Attorney General to impose conditions to prevent harm to the state’s health care system.
