Six states with price transparency laws for insurers:
Texas passed legislation in 2021 that is similar to the federal requirements, and also requires payers to provide care cost estimates to members upon request.
Oklahoma passed legislation creating a “Right to Shop” program, which financially incentivizes members to choose low-cost providers and requires participating payers to create a care cost-comparison tool.
South Dakota, Tennessee, Georgia and Ohio have also passed similar state-level versions of the federal price transparency rule.
At the Becker's 5th Annual Fall Payer Issues Roundtable, taking place November 17–19 in Chicago, payer executives and healthcare leaders will come together to discuss value-based care, regulatory changes, cost management strategies and innovations shaping the future of payer-provider collaboration.
