Tool compares 482 US hospital prices with insurer payments
Original: Show HN: What 482 hospitals charge vs. what insurers pay, from their own files
A new searchable tool shows what 482 US hospitals list as their charges versus what insurers actually pay, using the hospitals' own mandated price-transparency files. The gap between sticker prices and negotiated rates is often stark, and users are comparing costs across hospitals and regions to see how much pricing varies for the same care.
Why now: Hospital price transparency rules have made this data available, and the stark gaps between list prices and insurer rates draw wide attention.
