Price Intelligence
Whoa. This is a lot of price data.
We're loading it up for you!
Patients, employers, and brokers are comparing hospital prices. The question isn't whether your prices are visible — it's whether you're controlling the narrative.

If your price beats the market, employers and patients should know. If it doesn't, you need to know first.
Why This Matters
Self-funded employers, brokers, and health share networks are using hospital pricing data to steer patients, design plans, and negotiate rates. Your prices are public — the question is whether you're using that data strategically.
Hospitals with competitive pricing and strong quality ratings are winning employer contracts and capturing self-pay volume. Know your position and market it.
CMS penalties for non-compliance can reach $5,500+ per day. Automated monitoring catches formatting errors, stale files, and missing items before regulators do.
Patients increasingly shop for care. A clear, searchable price tool on your website signals transparency and builds trust before they ever walk through your doors.
