ATTENTION:
As of April 3, 2025, Ohio's new healthcare transparency law is in full effect. This means that all Ohio hospitals are now required to show patients exact upfront prices for all services. Not estimates — real prices. It's the law!
If your hospital refuses to give you an upfront price for care, alert your local elected officials!
Did You Know?
All U.S. hospitals are required by a federal rule established by President Trump to publish their prices for all services online.
H.B. 49 has earned widespread bipartisan support and would enforce price transparency requirements by cracking down on hospitals that hide prices.
87% of the hospitals in Ohio still refuse to show their prices.
H.B. 49 would foster a functional healthcare marketplace with more choices and competition – and more affordable care for everyone.
