Industry Voices—Antitrust enforcers say healthcare, pharma won't escape scrutiny
Earlier this month, antitrust lawyers and enforcers from around the globe convened in Washington, D.C., for the annual American Bar Association (ABA) Antitrust Spring Meeting. This meeting is the largest event for the antitrust bar annually and provides an opportunity for enforcers to preview their enforcement agendas and policy objectives for the coming year.
Unlike past years, federal enforcers did not join the spring meeting over disputes with the ABA on their policy statements. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Chairman Andrew Ferguson and Assistant Attorney General (AAG) of the U.S. Department of Justice Antitrust Division Gail Slater, however, joined a separate panel, during which they discussed the federal agencies’ outlook on key antitrust issues.
