I too wonder why the MD side of healthcare doesn't work more like this in the US.
I was actually very taken aback recently when I needed to get dental work and was presented with costing info about 10 mins after my visit started.
It did feel a bit greasy, I must admit - but I get that the point is for everyone to be on the same page before the procedure.
edit: I now recall that I did use Urgent Care for awhile for healthcare while uninsured - in the US - these are basically "fixed menu" clinics. They have a menu of services / costs for cash.

- mynameisvlad 8y agoAll of what I said was with a US dentist. They're out of network but I honestly don't even care with the level of service they've given me. Every visit I feel at ease, and they always walk me through everything using photos and showing me on the x-rays. They never bullshit me and have always made sure I understood why they were doing what they were doing and what they are looking for and are concerned about.
