Healthcare Amazon: Is it a myth?
Price Transparency is one of the key initiatives of Healthcare Reform. However, after years of debates, research, a clear trend or leader(s) failed to materialize. We still have a long way to go before the dust settles down for the vision of "Healthcare Amazon Model". Our research based on many of our clients' queries is summarized in this blog: Review of Healthcare Pricing Tools. Hope that it helps to clarify the air a bit around the root causes for the complexity and the current healthcare tool landscape.

7 年I did check it out. Very impressive! Consumers need to demand this transparency from surgical centers/hospitals.

7 年Price transparency is of utmost importance within this broken healthcare space. Healthcare consumers need access to price comparisons, especially the cost of hospital sourced care. Social media needs to attack this beast and expose it for what it is. Unfortunately, many healthcare administrators place profit ahead of quality patient care. Making money has become more important than making a difference. How sad.
