UnitedHealth Group has agreed to sell off 164 hospice and home health locations to resolve U.S. antitrust concerns over its $3.3 billion acquisition of Amedisys, the U.S. Justice Department said on Thursday.
The Justice Department and attorneys general from four states sued last year to block the deal, arguing it would reduce competition in the home health services market.
The deal is the latest to be cleared by Trump administration antitrust enforcers, who have shown greater willingness to clear deals than their predecessors in the Biden administration.
