Often when we call out how much more specific procedures cost for employers, their first response is “healthcare is just more expensive here”. That response only makes sense if the cost of care correlated with the cost of living in each of the areas. That is not what we are finding: CT Scan in Chicago - $4500 – Miami Florida- $450 Total knee in Northern Indiana $82k, Philadelphia PA $19k Preventative Colonoscopy in Memphis TN or Baltimore Maryland- around $1,300- vs. in a small town in WI or Ohio- $12k Employers and Advisors need to challenge their carriers to improve their contracts. Vital Incite has been able to support these types of efforts to drive change.
