Contributing sentiments towards policy:

73% : AGAINTrump's 2019 executive order improving price and quality transparency in American health care and the resulting hospital and health insurance price transparency rules provided Americans with actual price information about their medical services for the first time.
62% : Trump can follow through on his first-term efforts by immediately strengthening and enforcing his price transparency rules upon taking office.
60% : President Trump can unite these Americans and burnish his legacy by making health care price transparency a reality and ushering in an affordable and accountable health care system.
57% : In fact, a new study by PatientRightsAdvocate.org shows only 21.1% of hospitals nationwide are fully compliant and both posting their discounted cash prices and all the negotiated rates by health insurance company and plan.
54% : By finally removing the veil between medical services and prices, Trump can empower patients to shop for the right care at the right price, avoid overcharges, and give employers and unions a better idea of the costs in advance so that they can optimally design health benefits.
45% : Under the opaque status quo, American health care costs have ballooned to 17.3% of the economy, almost twice the developed world average.
