Journal Article
Skepticism about new US Government hospital pricing transparency rule
2019
Overview
According to oncologist Vinay Prasad (Knight Cancer Institute, Oregon Health & Science University, Portland, OR, USA), information about out-of-pocket health-care expenses would be more helpful for patients than hospitals' list prices, which do not always predict how much insurers will actually pay. Asked if the American Hospital Association will offer guidance to hospitals to help patients understand chargemasters and out-of-pocket costs, a spokeswoman replied that US hospitals are “committed to improving patients' access to information on the price of their care, and, specifically, on what the patient will pay out-of-pocket”.
