Asking difficult questions, pushing for transparency, and challenging how prices are set have helped a healthcare provider offer better coverage to its employees.
The time has come to pass legislation to mandate enforceable price transparency and "site neutral" payments, as well as ban anti-competitive contracting.
With rising healthcare costs putting pressure on both employers and employees, the challenge is clear:

Sharing knowledge through open-source collaborations and embracing transparency can help remove walls that have kept healthcare so closed and profit-driven.
