The U.S. healthcare system is dominated by a few major insurers and hospital networks, leading to a lack of competition and skyrocketing costs. Antitrust laws were designed to prevent monopolistic behavior, yet enforcement has been inconsistent, allowing healthcare corporations to dictate prices and limit consumer choice.

To restore competitive markets, regulatory agencies must take a stronger stance against mergers that reduce competition. Breaking up monopolies in the industry will help lower costs, increase access to care, and improve service quality.

Addressing antitrust violations is a crucial step toward creating a more balanced and fair healthcare system.
