The health care system is a complex and often bewildering experience for many people, particularly when it comes to the high costs involved. Whether it’s the expenses related to childbirth, caring for a loved one or facing one’s own health issues, receiving a hefty bill in the mail can be perplexing.
The reason behind these high costs can often be traced back to a well-known 2003 journal article written by a group of health economists called “It’s The Prices, Stupid.” This article shed light on the inner workings of the U.S. health care system and how prices are determined, which has influenced the way STAT approaches coverage of the industry.
