“With rising out-of-pocket expenses, patients are increasingly demanding information about price and quality that historically has been unavailable. Entrepreneurs, states and employers now offer such tools. San Francisco-based Pokitdok (pokitdok.com), co-founded by CEO Lisa Maki in 2011, operates in 44 markets, including Los Angeles. You can search the 50 most shopped medical procedures among 40,000 providers who have submitted their cash price. New York-based Clear Health Costs (clearhealthcosts.com) queries individual healthcare providers in eight markets, including Los Angeles, for a cash price on up to 35 common medical procedures.”
