Competitive Health Insurance Reform Act of 2017
This bill amends the McCarran-Ferguson Act to declare that nothing in that Act modifies, impairs, or supersedes the operation of antitrust laws with respect to the business of health insurance, including the business of dental insurance.
Prohibitions against unfair methods of competition apply to the business of health insurance without regard to whether the business is for profit.
