From Regulatory Burden to Patient-Centered Strategy

Publishing pricing data isn’t enough. To meet transparency mandates and earn patient trust, health systems must organize vast amounts of pricing information, integrate payer contracts, and communicate costs clearly. Health Catalyst helps healthcare organizations transform price transparency from a regulatory headache into a powerful advantage. Our solutions streamline compliance, integrate data, and deliver consumer-friendly insights that meet CMS regulations and support patient decision-making.

  • Publish machine-readable pricing data for all hospitals.
  • Deliver accurate shoppable services and charge lists.
  • Update requirements and automate compliance checks.
  • Track readiness and generate audit-ready reports.

Result: Penalty-free compliance without the stress.

Ensure Data Accuracy and Integration

Reduce manual effort and eliminate inconsistencies with integrated, validated pricing data across departments and systems.
