In this episode, we sit down with one of the most influential figures in government today: Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan. As the youngest FTC chair to ever be appointed, during her tenure the FTC has pushed to ban non-compete agreements, filed lawsuits against healthcare companies engaging in anti-competitive practices, and strengthened the Health Breach Notification Rule (HBNR) to protect sensitive health data.

We cover:

• The FTC's role in healthcare and how it compares to other sectors
• The impact of consolidation and vertical integration in the healthcare industry
• The agency's efforts to combat rising drug prices, including the recent actions against major PBMs
• The controversial "Orange Book" patent challenges and their implications for drug innovation
• The nationwide ban on non-compete agreements and its potential effects on doctors
• Chair Khan's vision for the future of competition law and its application to healthcare
