From Dr. McGann:
  "One of the big problems in Healthcare today is the lack of price transparency.  What does this cost? I want to know up front!  Why do we always get big bills after the fact?  Was this good value for money? Can I get better value somewhere else? My deductible is very high, so I'm paying for this: How do I know my insurance is getting me a good price? Do they even care? Personally, I've always been frustrated by this."

Direct Primary Care has price transparency.  It also has your Physician negotiating for you for better prices and better value.  There are many instances in Primary Care where not using insurance for lab work, imaging, and medications is cheaper than using it.

One reliable resource to check on the costs of all things medical is the website Fair Health Consumer.
