  • Title: Supreme Court relaxes exclusive contract rules in antitrust decision.
    Author: Reed TJ, Allen HS.
    Journal: Trustee; 1984 Jun; 37(6):34-8. PubMed ID: 10266797.
    Abstract:
    If there is no evidence that a hospital is using market power to "force" its contracting physician upon patients and if the exclusive contract does not adversely affect price or quality, an exclusive arrangement should not violate the federal antitrust laws. These are the insights gained from the decision handed down by the Supreme Court in Hyde (Jefferson Parish Hospital District No. 2 v. Hyde , No. 82-1031).
