Why Facts Matter

Improving access starts with understanding the problem.

Millions of Americans delay or avoid medical care because of cost uncertainty. Without knowing how much a procedure will cost upfront, many skip care altogether. CostCures is working to fix this by making healthcare pricing transparent and accessible to all. These numbers reflect the scope of the challenge, and the momentum of our solution.

High-Deductible Reality

51% of private-sector workers

are now enrolled in high‑deductible health plans, leaving as many as 75–85 million Americans responsible for the first $8,300 (individual) or $16,600 (family) of care in 2025. Why it matters: CostCures helps these households cut that exposure by finding self‑pay prices up to 70% below the rates billed to insurance.

How CostCures Helps

Built for patients, backed by experts.

CostCures was founded to empower patients—especially the uninsured and underinsured—to access affordable healthcare without surprises. Our team of physicians, software engineers, and nurses has built a system that:

  • Offers upfront, self-pay pricing across imaging, lab, and medical services
  • Helps users find care that fits their budget and location
  • Telemedicine for Urgent Care, Primary Care and Mental Health Counseling, as well as Counseling through employers/organizations
  • Guides patients with the help of AI-powered search and human concierge support

As our Provider Partner Network grows, so does our ability to help patients save and providers streamline care delivery.

Why Price Transparency Still Feels Opaque

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) now requires hospitals to publish all standard charges—including gross charges, cash prices, and payer-specific negotiated rates. Healthcare price transparency in the US is still a work in progress, with varying degrees of compliance among hospitals and insurers. While most hospitals are posting machine-readable files with rate information, a significant number are not fully compliant with all requirements of price transparency regulations.

CostCures solves this problem by translating CPT codes into plain-English procedure names, grouping all fees into a single upfront price, and providing side-by-side comparisons within seconds.
