WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court won’t stop the state of New Hampshire from making doctors’ prescription-writing habits confidential over the objection of companies who analyze and sell that information.
The high court on Monday refused to hear an appeal from IMS Health Inc. of Norwalk, Conn., and Verispan LLC of Yardley, Pa.
Those two companies collect, analyze and sell prescription information and wanted to argue that the law violates their First Amendment right to free speech in pursuit of their business.
