HCA Healthcare said in a statement it is 'reviewing the decision' and will 'continue to comply with all applicable laws.'
HCA's PAC has consistently supported Republican leadership, including contributions to committees associated with figures like Mitch McConnell and Kevin McCarthy during their tenures, who worked closely with the Trump administration on deregulation.
