Part of the problem is that hospitals don't disclose prices before performing services
Even my vet gives an estimate before treatment -- with a "low", "typical" and "high" estimates. I have to sign off on it before they'll provide treatment.
Why can't hospitals do the same for non-emergency care?
- jiveturkey 8y agoit would take a month to come back with the estimate. you don’t just call the insurance and get a price.

- telchar 8y agoOften they don't know themselves. It takes an elaborate back and forth negotiation with the insurance company to come to a final cost even when you wind up on the hook for it.
