The most efficient provider, however, might not be the best provider. If you have cancer, you want to get the best treatment and survive. But hey, this other guy might be able to do it cheaper!

Just as big a problem as the opacity in pricing, is the opacity in figuring out who the best providers even are. There's no Yelp for healthcare because powerful groups won't let it exist.
