Thank you to @SenatorBraun for always being a staunch advocate for transparent prices in healthcare to lower costs and protect consumers from overcharges!

Senator Braun also led the Health Care PRICE Transparency Act 2.0. The bill mandates actual up front prices for Americans, so you know what you're paying before you receive treatment. fiercehealthcare.com/regulatory/it-…

Important discussion from @TheoVon and @JDVance on price transparency in healthcare: Theo Von: “How do we not have real prices and transparency in healthcare knowing that it’s exactly what America needs so that our healthcare system will be honest and affordable and…

"Price transparency will actually give American consumers a little bit more choice and will also drive down costs." @JDVance knows that Americans from both sides of the aisle support and NEED healthcare price transparency. 💪

“It’s even crazier than you think it is…Same hospital, you go and get an MRI. Your insurance company will pay $500, my insurance company pays $700.” @SenSanders & @TheoVon expose how bad healthcare price discrepancies can be on @ThisPastWeeknd 🔥

More on the harm caused by @UPMC ‘s profit over people approach. (Check out some shots from @Inhospitableflm in this piece!) @BernieSanders @SenSanders should definitely watch our film if he wants to see the impact of nonprofit hospitals on patients, workers and the community!

Bernie Sanders, chair of the Senate committee overseeing health, will hold a hearing on the practices of nonprofit hospitals, after his staff found the facilities abusing their tax-exempt status and denying patients the care they need. We looked into this harmful practice.



Good advice!

“While you’re making an appointment, whether it’s for a check-up or a colonoscopy, ask for the price of the visit, both with and without insurance, says Cynthia Fisher…” Great tips from @voxdotcom on advocating for yourself at the doctor’s office! vox.com/even-better/23…

⚠️ Price Transparency exposes the wide price variation — even within the same hospital — and empowers consumers to choose the best care at the lowest price! 📉

New paper in @Health_Affairs with Yang Wang, Jianhui (Frank) Xu, @GeBaiDC, and Gerard Anderson. In this paper, we study differences in hospital prices in commercial vs. Medicare Advantage within the same hospital and insurer. #PriceTransparency 🧵below: healthaffairs.org/doi/10.1377/hl…

Cut the BS. Watch this mind-blowing ad. We don't accept estimated $$ in any other industry. We shouldn't in healthcare either.
