假如美国医疗费用变得透明化会怎样？

Libby Rosenthal wrote a series for The New York Times on health costs, and then followed up with this excellent book.

Steve Brill wrote a cover piece for Time magazine in 2013 that shocked people who had no idea how health care pricing worked.

e-Patient Dave deBronkart, a kidney cancer survivor, had a skin cancer episode not long ago. Knowing how crazy billing is, he issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the treatment and wrote a fascinating series of posts documenting his path. The initial post and his updates are on his blog.

Dave Chase, a Washington businessman working to change the way employers choose benefits for their employees, writes about the current system in this book. (I contributed one chapter, on how cash prices for health care stay relatively unchanged over time.)
