Healthcare has embraced transparency. One problem: some transparency is clearer than others.
Insurers, lawmakers and elite advocacy groups will try to bring clarity to healthcare transparency at MedCity ENGAGE, MedCityNews.com’s summit on patient engagement and healthcare delivery, on July 14-15 in Bethesda.
MedCity News’ Neil Versel will moderate the discussion, drilling down to define the meaning of that phrase and asking whether today’s healthcare transparency is empowering, accurate, helpful and what consumers actually want (and need)?

- Francois de Brantes, executive director of the Health Care Incentives Improvement Institute, which annually publishes a State Report Card on Transparency of Physician Quality Information
- Oregon State Sen. Elizabeth Steiner Hayward, a physician who is pushing legislation that would require healthcare systems to post prices for the most popular inpatient and outpatient procedures, broken down by insurance companies and public programs in that state
