Bill > SB1696

This bill authorizes the Board of Curators of the University of Missouri to own or operate health care facilities, including hospitals and medical providers, and to acquire entities or assets involved in providing health care services. Importantly, this authorization is granted in the context of the Curators exercising their existing powers under state law and the Missouri Constitution, and it specifically exempts the University of Missouri and its collaborators from penalties under section 416.051 (which typically deals with anti-trust violations) for these health care activities within a defined list of twenty-five counties in Missouri.
