Patients want to talk
Seventy percent of Americans would like to have conversations about the costs of care with their health care providers, but only 28% do so, according to polling conducted for the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) by Avalere Health.
With those polling results in hand, 2 years ago RWJF and Avalere Health launched the Cost Conversation projects to help. Practice briefs for these kinds of conversations are now available on America’s Essential Hospitals’ website (https://essentialhospitals.org/cost-care/practice-briefs/).
