Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush is resigning from the board of a health care company that has profited from Obamacare following his decision to 'actively explore' a presidential campaign.

Effective Dec. 31, Bush will no longer be employed by Tenet Healthcare or multinational financial services firm Barclays as disentangles himself from business interests that could cause conflicts if he declares his candidacy, as expected, for the 2016 competition.

He has also stopped booking paid speeches, though he will follow through on previous commitments through early next year.

Bush's spokeswoman Kristy Campbell told the Los Angeles Times that the former chief executive of Florida is 'reviewing all his engagements and his business commitments' as he makes the transition from businessman to politician, again.
