Did you know that most employers pay 250-700% of #Medicare pricing for the identical procedure? Did you know that efficiently run #hospitals do not lose money providing Medicare services? No incentive to improve if employers pay whatever is asked.

*@PEHealthIT discusses support for legislature that would stabilize the #Medicare Part D program. Such measures could reduce rising patient financial responsibility. #VBID aligns patient’s #OutOfPocket costs with the value of specific clinical services: bit.ly/VBIDinfo

According to @American_Heart, limited #healthliteracy is blocking people from achieving good cardiovascular health and treatment. Diabetes patients with low health literacy are more likely to develop complications, such as diabetic retinopathy bit.ly/2JkwnE8

Finally - a bit of transparency and the ability to shop for some non-emergent medical services. Nice work @CIVHC_News Lets make this happen for all medical services nationwide! teapawt.net/CIVHC_News/status/1018…

We (@CIVHC_News) have been at this #healthcare #price #transparency thing for a while, but the variation never ceases to amaze me. If you need an MRI/CT/etc. make sure you shop! You could save thousands. civhc.org/shop-for-care/

To achieve a culture of health, you need a culture of health literacy. It is also important for employees to realize that wellness vendors are often wrong about dietary advice.https://…lnkd.in/eHiztUF lnkd.in/eyvd2Vg
