Use This on Your Next Client
This isn't a data science project. It's a tool you use before decisions get made — in the meetings where plans get chosen, hospitals get recommended, and renewals get signed.
Renewals
Show clients how their current plan rates stack up against alternatives at the hospitals their employees actually use. Data-backed renewal conversations reduce churn.
Proposals
Walk into a pitch with side-by-side hospital pricing that no other broker has. Concrete cost differences close deals that generic plan comparisons can't.
Client Conversations
When an employer asks "which hospital is cheapest for this?" — answer with data instead of guessing. One conversation like this changes the relationship.
This Is What You'd Show a Client
Same procedure, same payer, same metro — 86% price difference. This is what hospital choice costs your clients.

Questions
Where does the data come from?+
Actual negotiated rates from hospital machine-readable files published under the CMS Price Transparency Rule (45 CFR 180). Every US hospital is legally required to publish these. We parse, normalize, and index them so you can search in seconds instead of downloading 50GB files.
How do I use this in practice?+
Pull up a procedure your client cares about, compare rates across hospitals in their area, and drop the comparison into your renewal deck or proposal. When a client asks "which hospital is cheapest for a knee replacement under BCBS?" — you answer with data.
Which payers are included?+
All major payers that hospitals report: BCBS TX, Aetna, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, Humana, and dozens of regional plans. If a hospital published it, we indexed it.
How current is the data?+
We re-crawl hospital files regularly. Most hospitals update quarterly. When they republish, we re-parse within days.
What if I just want to see a sample first?+
Email reports@medbillresolve.com with a few hospital names and a payer. We'll send you back a real comparison report — free, no login, no commitment.
Do you cover states outside Texas?+
10 states are live with 2,000+ hospitals including TX, FL, NY, CA, IL, OH, PA, NJ, NC, and VA. More states launching monthly. Full national coverage is on the roadmap.
Stop Guessing What Hospitals Cost
The data is public. The advantage is knowing how to use it. Put real hospital pricing into your next renewal, proposal, or client conversation.
