Catalyst for Payment Reform (CPR) and the Health Care Incentives Improvement Institute (HCI3) will release their second Report Card on State Transparency Laws. The report rates the efforts in all 50 states to report health care price information to the public.
In their first report (pdf) issued in March 2013, CPR and HCI3 gave 29 states a letter grade of “F” (the lowest score on a scale from A to F). Only two states (Massachusetts and New Hampshire) received the highest grade.
