In recent years, private plaintiffs, the federal antitrust agencies, state attorneys general and Congress have all turned their focus to “no-poach” agreements, which prohibit companies from hiring or soliciting each other’s workers. Private class action plaintiffs have increasingly targeted no-poach and wage-setting agreements with success in fields including health care. We will examine the current governmental and private plaintiff scrutiny of no-poach agreements, particularly as to how they may affect the health care industry in terms of “non-solicitation” and “no-hire” agreements between health care entities.
CLE credit available.
