"We'll have the maximum price transparency, and the costs will come down just by that." Thank you President Donald J. Trump for leading on healthcare price transparency and requiring hospitals and insurers to post prices so patients know before care!

Why Is Healthcare Pricing Still a Secret? The government created two major rules in the early 2020s to help patients understand the actual cost of healthcare: 1️⃣ Transparency in Coverage Rule – Requires insurance companies to disclose negotiated rates. 2️⃣ Hospital Price Transparency Rule – Requires hospitals to publish their prices. The goal? To create a real marketplace where patients and providers could compare costs and make informed decisions. But here’s the problem: hospitals and insurers aren’t really complying. Instead of clear, easy-to-read pricing, they’ve published huge, unreadable data files called “machine-readable files.” These files are so big that even I can’t download them on my computer. 💰 Why would they do this? Because keeping prices a secret benefits them. If you don’t know what something costs until after treatment, you can’t shop around for better, more affordable care. Imagine going to a restaurant where there’s no menu with prices, and they just hand you the bill at the end. That’s how healthcare works right now. The government knows we need price transparency. But hospitals and insurers are making it as difficult as possible—because when you can’t see the cost, they control the system. If they were truly offering the best care, they wouldn’t need to hide their prices. But I want to know what you think? Should hospitals and insurers be required to provide clear, upfront pricing?
