Massachusetts is set to implement new regulations on private equity in the health-care sector, requiring more robust financial reporting and oversight by the state’s Health Policy Commission. The law, which comes after high-profile health-care bankruptcies, aims to increase transparency and provide lawmakers with better information regarding financial challenges faced by health-care facilities. One significant aspect of the legislation is a ban on acute-care hospitals entering new leaseback agreements with real estate investment trusts, addressing concerns over the financial burdens imposed by previous deals.
