This lack of competition for patients has a profound effect on the quality and cost of health care. Providers typically do not disclose prices prior to treatment because they do not compete for patients based on price. Payments are usually not made by patients themselves but by third parties — employers, insurance companies or government. But according to Devon M.

Health insurance marketplaces, online competitive insurance-shopping venues which connect buyers and sellers, offer a collective variety of health insurance plans to both individuals and employers. Managed by the federal and state governments, these public exchanges include mandated essentials, but are subject to changing regulations, including recently added fees and taxes.
