INTERVIEW
Protecting Competition And Consumers: A Conversation With Timothy J. Muris
William M. Sage
In this interview with William Sage of Columbia University, Federal Trade Commission (FTC) chair Timothy Muris discusses his commission’s role in the health care arena. He details the FTC’s antitrust and consumer protection activities in a variety of sectors, including hospitals, physicians, and pharmaceuticals. Muris affirms the commission’s belief that markets benefit consumers and that markets need basic rules to operate. The FTC’s role is to enforce those rules, based on empirical evidence, in as much of the economy as possible, including health care.
