Centura Health Offers Consumers Interactive Pricing and Quality Tool

May 6, 2015

(ENGLEWOOD, COLO.) Centura Health, the regions health care leader, recently launched an interactive quality and pricing tool on Centura.org to empower consumers to make more value-based health decisions. The health system will offer increased transparency and provide consumers with online access to meaningful, comprehensive and reliable information about the quality and price of services.

Just as consumers comparison shop for important purchases like a house or car, they are also looking for price and quality information to make informed, value-based decisions regarding their health. Centura Health believes quality, convenience and service go hand in hand with price. As such, the online tool is available 24/7 and includes:

  • Prices by region for the top 65 inpatient and outpatient common procedures for self-pay individuals;
  • The ability to request a custom quote to bring better clarity and understanding of the health care expense in advance of services;
  • An interactive report that shows how hospitals within the Centura Health system compare in caring for patients as well as a survey of patient satisfaction; and
  • Details about financial assistance and Centura Healths commitment to charity care.

 

We are committed to delivering on our promise to enhance the value of health and meet consumers wherever they are in their personal health journey, said Gary Campbell, president and CEO, Centura Health. We know our consumers are actively searching for quality and price information to help them make more informed value-based health decisions and it is our responsibility to deliver solutions that exhibit leadership and diligence to ensure integrity in the value we provide.
