Bill overview
The Patients Deserve Price Tags Act aims to increase transparency in healthcare costs by requiring hospitals and laboratory providers to publicly disclose their standard charges and negotiated prices. It mandates that hospitals make this information available monthly in a consumer-friendly format, including details on discounted cash prices and payer-specific rates. The bill also extends price transparency requirements to clinical diagnostic laboratory tests, with disclosures starting in 2027. This legislation seeks to empower patients with the information needed to make informed decisions about their healthcare.
