  Put together a deep dive into healthcare price transparency, the patient registration and eligibility process, how it's broken, and how it leads to providers not getting fairly compensated, and drives higher costs for all healthcare.

  Covers: - how our current tools fail providers and patients - how payors benefit from the status quo and have no incentive to fix it systemically - how providers can provide price transparency to patients (mostly in outpatient settings) - other things providers can do to improve their processes & technology

  If you're trying to improve your patient registration process, provide price transparency to patients, or building patient collections infrastructure, this is for you. Feedback is super welcome
