  • O Chain Reaction: Impact Donation Collaborative O Celebrating 100 Million Registered Donors O Who’S Who in Lifenet Health Donor Hospitals
    A quarterly highlight of the donor hospitals within LifeNet Health’s service area December 2011 March 2010 o 2011 Virginia Transplant Games o Paired Kidney Donation o A Life Shared and A Life Saved o Hospital Performance Report o Chain Reaction: Impact Donation Collaborative o Celebrating 100 Million Registered Donors o Who’s Who in LifeNet Health Donor Hospitals 68-40-035.06 Saturday, October 1, 2011 was a crisp, cool fall day in Richmond – the perfect setting for the first ever Virginia Transplant Games held at Clover Hill High School. The opening ceremonies didn’t leave a dry eye in the stadium as donor families, recipients, family, and friends stood together to celebrate life. The games were established for two reasons: to illustrate how organ, eye, tissue and bone marrow donation and transplantation works; allowing recipients of these precious gifts to live, full, healthy, and more active lives than they ever imagined; and to reinforce how these gifts are generously given by Virginia citizens who can designate their decision to donate on the Virginia donor registry, www.DonateLifeVirginia.org. Attending the event was an emotional experience for everyone – including donor families, organ recipients, and supportive friends and family. Knowing that so many people in attendance had either experienced the loss of a loved one who had donated life-saving tissue and organs, or had been a recipient of another person’s selfless giving and generosity, was overwhelming. Let the Games Begin! The opening ceremonies began with the Color Guard and National Anthem which was a stirring rendition by Reverend David K.

(“PWHS”), having entered into a merger agreement, which if consummated would violate Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C. § 18, and it appearing to the Commission that a proceeding by it in respect thereof would be in the public interest, hereby issues its complaint pursuant to Section 11(b) of the Clayton Act, 15 U.S.C. § 21(b), stating its charges as follows: NATURE OF THE CASE 1. The merger of Inova and PWHS (“the Merger”) will reduce vital competition and result in higher prices and reduced non-price competition for general, acute care inpatient hospital services in Northern Virginia. Although health plans are the direct customers of Respondents, higher prices for hospital services are passed on to employers, unions, and other group purchasers of health insurance plans and - ultimately - are borne by the individuals and families residing in Northern Virginia. 1 2. Both Inova and PWHS provide high quality general, acute care inpatient hospital services to health care consumers in Northern Virginia.1 Inova already is the dominant hospital system in Northern Virginia.
