Show HN: Price.hospital https://ift.tt/36FzXWT

Show HN: Price.hospital https://price.hospital/ I'm attempting to make US hospital prices searchable and comparable after congress enacted price transparency. I'm aware that there are severe problems here as the prices are so opaque. The prices quoted are not the insurance-negotiated prices, it's taking time to load in and clean up all the data, hospital compliance with transparency is... mixed... But we have to move the ball forward somehow. Also the site is missing many obvious features that I'm hacking (like human-readable procedure names like "cat scan" = "ct imaging" but hey. All feedback welcome, thanks! May 29, 2020 at 12:05AM
