This sounds like such a good idea. I always pushed for it as well. Then my wife was diagnosed with late stage (now terminal) cancer. When you get that diagnosis, it becomes incredibly hard to understand the trade offs, even with complete pricing information. She's and MD and I'm an MBA and business owner and we still struggled. Asking patients in need of critical care to make good trade offs with regard to cost and quality is asking too much.
