Abstract:
While most stakeholders agree on the need for more transparency in our health care system, there is substantial debate about how to make meaningful progress toward this goal in specific cases.1 This Manatt study focuses on one such case—the federal price transparency rules for hospitals that took effect in January 2021. The study, which is based on a review of New York hospital websites in July 2021, looks at how hospitals responded to key elements of the federal rules in the first six months of implementation. The results are preliminary in nature given an ongoing implementation process since July, but the findings do illuminate the early state of play in one state that may or may not be representative of other states.
