Hospitals, labs, imaging centers, and surgical centers would show prices upfront for healthcare services.
This bill would make it easier for everyday Americans to know the cost of healthcare services before they get them. Hospitals, labs, imaging centers, ambulatory surgical centers, and health insurance companies would have to publish their prices and give patients detailed cost estimates. This aims to help people compare prices and avoid unexpected bills.
Currently, it's often difficult for patients to find out the exact cost of healthcare services or what their insurance will cover before they receive care. After this bill, hospitals, labs, imaging centers, ambulatory surgical centers, and health plans would be required to make prices public and provide personalized cost estimates, giving patients more clarity and control over their healthcare spending.
