TruCost serves the full ecosystem, from the bedside to the boardroom, delivering the right pricing intelligence to the right person at the right moment. Explore the workflow built for your role below.
Small and mid size practices historically lack the resources to analyze payer contract data or benchmark their rates against the market. TruCost levels the playing field, giving independent physicians and practice administrators the same intelligence a hospital CFO gets, without hiring a dedicated analytics team.
Revenue cycle teams need to justify rate increase requests, audit payer contract performance, and model complex renegotiation scenarios. TruCost provides the benchmarking data that makes those conversations data driven instead of anecdotal, sourced directly from federally mandated public MRF filings.
Companies that self insure their employee health benefits have a legal fiduciary duty under ERISA to evaluate whether their health plan is providing adequate value. TruCost gives HR and benefits administrators the payer rate data they need to audit carrier pricing and make defensible plan design decisions.
The same MRF compliance mandates that TruCost interprets on behalf of providers also apply to payers themselves. Health plans use TruCost as a continuous audit surface to verify their own published MRF data meets CMS accuracy and completeness requirements, and to differentiate through member facing transparency tools.
At the center of everything TruCost does is the patient who does not know there is a cheaper option for their medication, or the family trying to find affordable skilled nursing care for a parent being discharged tomorrow. TruCost Drugs is free to patients, because access to pricing information should not be a premium product.
Social Workers & Care Navigators
The unsung heroes of hospital discharge planning deserve better tools. TruCost's Discharge Navigator was built specifically for this workflow, proactively surfacing affordable, covered, SDOH enriched post acute options before a patient is exposed to financial risk, not after.
