This could still lead to lower prices by giving consumers better information. I have always wanted to set up a site to allow people to compare prices for healthcare in different hospitals/areas in the USA but this information is not publically available on the scale that would make it feasible.

Here is a good example of a hospital that is doing it right. Granted I have not been there but I would really consider it if I needed surgery and I was in the area. Maybe domestic medical tourism.
