Patients Deserve Straightforward Pricing
From pharmaceuticals, to direct primary care, to telehealth and more, patients are starting to speak up in 2024 regarding the healthcare industry. Healthcare recipients are looking into the state of effective medical insurance, elements of economic profit and financial performance that hurt payers standing over costs, and individuals’ ability to receive the care they need.
The healthcare industry is continuing to evolve with movements such as Power to the Patient, an organization that speaks out about the lack of clarity with medical pricing, and the Federal law known as the Acto sin sorpresas.
As the health industry is growing and changing due to patient advocacy, more and more patients are fed up with the lack of upfront pricing when it comes to medical care, and brands are changing.
Smith Medical is a direct-pay surgical care center that offers all different types of surgery performed by board-certified fellowship-trained doctors who specialize in their craft. These doctors want to help reduce healthcare barriers and costs by providing cash-based insurance-free surgeries to reduce the cost of surgery and speed up the process of care.
Knowing the price of surgery helps patients in the following ways:
- Patients can budget for their medical expenses.
- Patients can fully consent to services with all of the facts of the procedure in front of them before they go through with a procedure.
- Cost transparency allows patients to shop for services rather than relying on insurers to negotiate with providers which drives the price up for everything.
