HCCI’s research on hospital price transparency was cited in a Modern Healthcare article on cash prices for hospital procedures. 

From the article: “C-section prices across one large California health system’s hospital network ranged from $7,634 to $70,553, data from the Health Care Cost Institute shows.”
