Some states require a "Certificate of Need" to open a new hospital so we ought to do away with those to promote competition. But beyond that, which specific regulations are harming competition?

Lack of health care records interoperability (locks patients into a system).
Much of the well-intended regulation around healthcare ends up getting perverted to prevent competition.
You misunderstand. We only have a degree of interoperability for patient records due to federal regulation. Regulation in that area actually helps competition.
