Indiana lawmakers banned noncompete agreements for primary care physicians two years ago. The House-approved bill expands the ban to include all doctors employed by hospitals and their affiliated entities.

Senate lawmakers advanced Senate Bill 475 Wednesday to ban non-compete agreements for doctors.

With Mike Braun now the governor-elect of Indiana local health care advocacy groups weigh in on his proposed health care plan.

The Federal Trade Commission's ban on noncompetes would impact the health care industry when and if it goes into effect. Some in the industry are applauding the rule, while others are voicing their dismay and vowing to sue.
