Governor Rick Scott wants to deregulate the health care industry, privatize Medicaid and end medical malpractice lawsuits�. All of which could benefit his former company Solantic Urgent Care. But Scott signed over his ownership in Solantic to his wife so technically he�s not breaking any laws� but critics say he�s too close to Solantic for comfort. Scott was asked today if he saw a conflict of interest. He dodged the question.

�Everything that I want to accomplish in health care in Florida is basically what I�ve believed all my life. I believe in the principal that if he have competition it will drive down prices. If you have more choices it�s better for the consumer, also it will help to drive down price,� said Scott.

Scott quit the Solantic Board of Directors shortly before running for governor in 2010 and reportedly hasn�t been in contact with Solantic execs since then.
