New tool compares hospital charges with insurer payments

Original: Show HN: What 482 hospitals charge vs. what insurers pay, from their own files

A new site called Billmender compiles pricing data from 482 US hospitals, showing what each hospital charges for procedures versus what insurers actually pay, using the hospitals' own published files. The project highlights the wide gaps between listed prices and negotiated rates, a subject of ongoing debate over US healthcare price transparency rules.

Why now: Hospital price transparency is a recurring hot topic, and a searchable comparison of real negotiated rates draws strong interest
