Why Don’t More People Use Pricing Tools?
For most people, the cost of care has little effect on what they pay because costs often exceed deductibles Most pricing tools focus on the choice of the hospital because that data is easier to develop, but people typically focus on the choice of the doctor The doctor you go to will almost always determine the hospital you go to Doctors are paid by fee schedule and the contracted fees is the same, while Hospital fees vary widely “Tools” promote themselves with a focus on outpatient radiology – CT/MRI, but costs are driven by larger procedures Staying in-network is key to lower costs all around and is not that difficult to explain Engaging the consumer in the discussion of price/costs is key. Is this really a smartphone app?
