what is s so hard to accept is just how long it takes to enforce best practise against industry intransigence. Yet this is real progress and will now roll out over decades.
In a massive win, HHS Sec. Bobby Kennedy is moving to FORCE Big Healthcare to disclose all pricing to Americans UP FRONT rather than dump JUNK DATA as a loophole, which was totally unusable

Pricing files will be slashed by -70% and Americans will actually be able to SHOP AROUND with all necessary information before they receive care THIS IS COMMON SENSE The new rule: – Cuts pricing-file size by about 70% and kills the duplicate noise – Forces plans and insurers to ATTEST the data is true, accurate, and complete – Puts a SENIOR OFFICIAL’s name on that attestation – Makes the files easier to find and compare – Expands useful out-of-network pricing info – Lets patients get personalized cost-sharing quotes by PHONE, not just online “Patients will be better able to compare what care costs before they receive it.” “We are also requiring health plans and insurers to attest that pricing data they publish is true, accurate, and complete, and to identify the senior official at that company who is responsible.” Thank you, @SecKennedy ! I VOTED FOR THIS. For years, big healthcare has been allowed to take advantage of millions of Americans and over-charged them Trump and Bobby are getting it fixed!
