      EconTalk has a super interesting new podcast episode on a surgical practice in Oklahoma that has refused to accept insurance and instead offered flat-rate, transparent pricing for more than 20 years. Their full price list is even posted on their website https://www.econtalk.org/keith-smith-on-free-market-health-care/ …pic.twitter.com/6wqv52FlHf

      I was just listening to it now! I wonder what this has to say to the argument that healthcare in the US has to be hopelessly expensive because the US is rich (Baumol).

      If the podcast doesn't answer 'why isn't this model evrrywhere' I'll be disappointed

      They do: Inertia, the free market hospital movement was born recently, plus cronyism (eg certificate of need laws that would prevent someone from competing)

      I should probably write this up later w/ numbers later, but my two cents: procedures in hospital are inherently expensive due to greater overhead/complexity, unionization, etc. +

      But these are unrelated to what goes on in the podcast isn't it?

      Here's an interesting analysis by an ambulatory surgery trade group. Numbers look plausible to me, tho I haven't vetted them https://www.ascassociation.org/advancingsurgicalcare/reducinghealthcarecosts/costsavings/healthcarebluebookstudy …pic.twitter.com/gN8sNLpdnK

      They're teo totally different patient populations. They're essentially poaching and free riding off the system. They take the easy and high paying stuff, while charging more than an insured person would pay, strange, but good for them.

      I doubt they're paying more per patient *in expectation,* but yes, it's two totally different payment ecosystems. They contract with employers willing to fly their employees out for surgery & cover all costs. Wanna argue your claims? What low-pay services are they not providing?

          I didnt say that. They are not providing high acuity complex care that is done in the hospital, generally sticking to easy cases. This is bread and butter surgery center and overall safety basics.

          Make your case, please. It's public. Which surgeries are "basic," and not typically performed in a hospital?
