March 23 (Reuters) - Australian Competition and Consumer Commission:
- Decided not to oppose Healthe Care Australia's proposed acquisition of Pulse Health
- Found although Mayo and Forster are only private hospitals in Forster-Taree region, 2 hospitals do not compete closely to attract doctors and patients
- ACCC's review also considered potential for Healthe Care to use acquisition of Pulse to increase bargaining power in negotiations with private health insurance funds
