Hospital Prices: Can Greater Price Transparency Drive Lower Prices and Reduce Price Variation?
April 14, 2022 | 1 to 2 p.m. EDT
Hospital prices can vary dramatically within and across geographic areas and payers. New hospital transparency rules aim to make it easier for consumers to shop and compare prices. During this virtual briefing and webinar on April 14, experts on these topics will provide an overview of hospital price variation, the new transparency rules, and whether and how price transparency will affect price variation, health care utilization, and health insurance premiums. The discussion will include information from Implications of Hospital Price Transparency on Hospital Prices and Price Variation, a recently released issue brief from the American Academy of Actuaries’ Health Care Delivery Committee which explores this topic in depth.
The conversation will be moderated by Rebecca Owen, MAAA, FSA, FCA, chairperson of the Academy’s Health Care Delivery Committee.
Our speakers include:
- Michael Cohen, Ph.D.
Analyst, Congressional Budget Office - Krutika Amin, Ph.D.
Associate Director, Program on the ACA, KFF (Kaiser Family Foundation) - Andrea Rome, MAAA, FSA, CERA
