HealthTech Remedy

"I need an MRI for my knee. How much will it cost?" For decades, American healthcare's shocking answer has been: "We'll bill you after." Carol Skenes of Turquoise Health joins HealthTech Remedy to reveal how her company is dismantling this absurdity by aggregating the once-secret negotiated rates between hospitals and insurers. Discover why identical radiation treatments can cost $20,000 at one facility and $400,000 at another, how these hidden prices affect your wallet, and why price transparency has garnered rare bipartisan support in Washington. Skenes shares how Turquoise's platform is revolutionizing healthcare negotiations, helping employers secure better rates, and finally enabling patients to comparison shop for medical care like any other service. The veil is lifting on America's most price-obscured industry - hear how this transformation affects you before your next medical appointment.
