AHA filed a friend-of-the-court brief on behalf of Florida Hospital of Orlando, saying that the case would establish a burdensome precedent should military health providers be forced to abide by OFCCP subcontractor rules.
“Healthcare providers required to comply with the OFCCP’s regulations would face additional paperwork burdens,” writes the AHA in its letter. “The Office’s arguments should be rejected and the case should be dismissed as moot in light of Congress’s amendment to the provisions governing TRICARE.”
