Senators Warren and Markey Oppose Steward Health's Sale of Physician Group to UnitedHealth

Steward Healthcare is facing backlash as it seeks to sell its network of physicians and nine Massachusetts hospitals to United Health Group to address financial issues. Health care experts and Senators Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey have expressed concerns about the potential sale, citing worries about patient care, antitrust issues, and the impact on health care workers. The state's Health Policy Commission will review the proposed sale, while Markey plans to convene a congressional field hearing about Steward's troubles.
