FILE - In this Sept. 20, 2019, file photo, an American flag flutters in the breeze outside of the Sutter Medical Center in Sacramento, Calif. California's attorney general wants the power to block hospital mergers that he says would limit competition and drive up prices, setting up a fight in the state Legislature next week over the future of health care delivery in the nation's most populous state. Becerra has made health care costs a focus of his first term in office. Last year, Becerra settled an antitrust case against Sutter Health, one of the country's largest health systems for $575 million and a pledge from the system to halt some of its anticompetitive practices.
