It seems outrageous that the gag clauses were ever allowed in the first place.

Glad that's been done away with.

I mean it's not that outrageous out of the context of healthcare. I don't expect Best Buy to help me find how to spend the least amount of money, for example.
Which is exactly why healthcare should not be treated as if it's any other business.
It's outragious to prevent pharmacists from informing patients. Competitors to Best Buy should be free to differentiate themselves by counselling clients on how to save money.
Out of curiosity, what's the last purchase you made from Best Buy where you would die (or even be significantly diminished) if you couldn't make it?
